DESCRIPTION

Inside, you’ll find:

  • Artisanal cider from a small-batch British producer — bright, balanced and crafted with real skill; a refreshing, characterful alternative to traditional sparkling wine.
  • Peppermint truffles with bright, fresh notes, made using English peppermint grown and distilled on a Hampshire estate.
  • Exceptional coffee from Round Hill Roastery, roasted with precision and the perfect start to any day.
  • Rich, fruit-forward preserve made in small batches with real care
  • Scottish-made shortbread, crafted with heritage, character and that unmistakable buttery crumble.
  • An artisan chocolate bar made with exceptional bean-to-bar care and depth of flavour.
  • Everyday tea done exceptionally well, sourced with integrity and brewed for depth, clarity and pure comfort.

The Classic Box feels generous because it is — full-sized, beautifully made items from makers who care about their craft. It’s the kind of gift that immediately feels thoughtful and substantial, offering comfort, indulgence and a sense of occasion in equal measure.

Whether for a milestone, a thank-you, a housewarming or a “just because,” The Classic Box makes a statement: modern British gifting, done properly.

The Classic is the best introduction to The Local’s world: honest flavours, high-quality craft and the kind of small-batch products you rarely find in mainstream shops. It’s familiar, universal and guaranteed to make someone smile — a modern take on the British gift hamper, done the artisan way.
