Win a cheese and wine hamper from Serenata


Do you fancy a little treat for yourself, or perhaps a gift for someone special?  Well what could be nicer than finishing off a meal with a selection of delicious artisan cheeses and crackers, washed down with a bottle of Bordeaux?

This hamper from Serenata retails at £35.99 including next day delivery so it's perfect to send as a gift - maybe a thank you, a birthday treat, anniversary congratulations or even an end of term gift for teacher.

The items came very well packaged and all arrived in good order.  Included in the hamper are *:

1 pack of Moroccan Spice Crackers
1 pack of Olive Crackers
Hand waxed scrumpy and apple cheese
Hand waxed Worcestershire Gold mature Cheddar
Hand waxed blackberry, cranberry and apple cheese
1 bottle of Grangeneuve Bordeaux

* on rare occasions it may be necessary to substitute some items for alternatives

The Cheddar cheese won't disappoint. It's rich and strong and incredibly moreish.  The fruit flavoured cheeses were good too, and not something I'd generally choose when shopping so it was great to try them.

The crackers were a big hit, much more interesting than plain old cheese biscuits. The spiced crackers had a real zing which complemented the fruity flavour of the berry cheese.

You'll be amazed to hear I'm sure that I haven't actually tried the wine yet - what?  I've been away!  But I'm sure it will go down a treat too.  Overall, this is a gift I'd be very happy to receive and would probably get much more pleasure from it than a bouquet of flowers.

If you'd like to win your own cheese and wine hamper from Serenata, either for yourself or to have delivered to someone else, simply complete the rafflecopter form below, leaving a comment on this blog post.

The giveaway ends at 12 midnight on 2nd July 2014, one winner will be chosen at random.  UK entrants and over 18s only.  The promoter and supplier of the prize is SerenataHampers.com



a Rafflecopter giveaway

Disclosure: I received a hamper for the purposes of this review and the company will also be supplying a hamper as described above to one winner.
