The Menu's top Christmas hampers for the finest festive fare

You’ll be hard pressed not to eat the packaging as well of this exquisite seasonal selection from the Lismore Food Company, in Co Waterford, old hands when it comes to seasonal pampering

In days of yore, hampers were afterthought assemblages of some of the tiredest products on the seasonal shelf, from cheap tinned biscuits to maiden aunt’s sherry tipple, but that began to change several years ago as an enlightened few put together collections of superb Irish specialty produce. The pandemic has turned that initial trickle into a torrent and, so spoilt are we for choice, it’s hard to know where to begin so The Menu has put together his pick of the bunch to ensure a Christmas table groaning under the weight of finest festive fare.
