What Is an Unusual Hamper
An unusual hamper is a gift that breaks the box format, built to surprise. A bucket of beer, a wooden clock of miniatures, an advent calendar of wine, a tower of chocolate. The kind of thing people remember getting.
An unusual gift here tends to be:
- A galvanised bucket of craft beer
- A wooden advent clock of gin or fizz
- A 24-door wine or beer calendar
- A tall tower of stacked chocolate
- Packed by hand, ready to surprise
Not another box on the doorstep. Something that gets a proper reaction when they open it.
Advent Calendars and Clocks
The standout unusual gifts are the countdowns. A twenty-four-door wine or beer calendar, or a wooden clock that holds twelve miniatures and gets kept afterwards. They are a December favourite, and they sit with the alcohol advent calendars when the festive range is live.
For the Person Who Has Everything
Some people are impossible to buy for because they have had it all. An unusual hamper is the answer. A beer bucket instead of a box, a chocolate tower instead of a bar, a calendar instead of a single bottle. It is the format that does the surprising, before they even taste it.
Choosing an Unusual Gift
Go by what they drink or love. The beer hampers lead with the galvanised bucket, and the chocolate hampers run up to a stacked tower. For a countdown gift, the Christmas range holds the wine, beer and gin calendars.
Ordering and Delivery
Delivery across the UK is free, with nothing on postage. Anything ordered before 1pm ships the same working day. Set the date at checkout. The bigger formats, buckets and calendars, are heavy and need signing for. Some hold alcohol, so an adult must be in. The delivery and returns page covers it.
Unusual Hampers: Frequently Asked Questions
A gift with a novelty format in place of a plain box. A galvanised beer bucket, a wooden advent clock, a drinks calendar, or a tall chocolate tower. The presentation is part of the surprise.
Something with a twist. A beer bucket, a chocolate tower, or a countdown calendar stands out where another box would not. The format catches them off guard before they even try it.
Yes. There are wine, beer and gin countdowns, from a twenty-four-door calendar to a wooden clock of miniatures. They are seasonal, so they appear with the Christmas range each year.
It is one of the best for a sweet tooth. Ten treats stacked into a tall gift box, so it looks the part on arrival and keeps giving as they work down it. A safe bet for a chocolate lover.
Free across the UK, out the same working day on a 1pm order. The bigger buckets and calendars are heavy, and anything with alcohol needs a signature, so send those where an adult is home.
