The Father’s Day gift guide for a foodie dad

The Father’s Day gift guide for a foodie dad

Finding the right Father’s Day gift for a dad who loves good food can sometimes be tricky – and it’s all too easy just to send another bottle of whisky or restaurant voucher. But a carefully curated hamper full of exceptional handcrafted cheese? That’s a different story. This gift guide will help you find the right Snowdonia Cheese Co hamper for your dad – whether he’s a craft beer enthusiast, a cheeseboard purist or a lover of a hearty Ploughman’s platter. 

What is the best Father’s Day gift for a foodie dad?

For a dad who takes his food seriously, a Snowdonia Cheese Co hamper delivers something no other gift can: a delicious cheese experience, ready to be enjoyed at home. Each hamper is filled with handcrafted cheeses, perfectly paired accompaniments and everything he needs to build a delicious cheeseboard. From our multi-award-winning Black Bomber extra mature Cheddar to our newest cheese, Purple Vale, every truckle is made with the same care and craft that has defined Snowdonia Cheese Co for 25 years. Beautifully presented and full of surprises, our hampers are delivered chilled straight to his door – and all he needs to do is tuck in.

For the dad who thinks he’s a Rock Star

Every dad thinks he’s a Rock Star. This hamper is for the ones who really are. The Rock Star Cheese Hamper puts our vintage cave-aged Rock Star centre stage: matured for 18 months deep inside Welsh slate caverns surrounded by the mountains of Snowdonia, it’s smooth and creamy with a hint of sweetness and a long savoury tang. Joining the lineup are three more handcrafted truckles – Purple Vale, Beech Wood and Ruby Mist – alongside a Rock Star Cheese & Wine Bake, Caramelised Balsamic Onion Chutney, sweet and spicy Hot Honey and Wholemeal & Extra Virgin Olive Oil Crackers. The headline act, and a very fine supporting cast.

For the beer-loving dad

If your dad’s idea of a perfect evening involves cracking open a cold craft beer and enjoying it with a treat or two, these hampers were made for him.

The Cheese & Beer Lovers Hamper features three of our classic cheeses – a double-size truckle of Black Bomber extra mature Cheddar, Red Storm vintage Red Leicester and Green Thunder mature Cheddar with roasted garlic and garden herbs – served with two bottles of Curious Brew, an award-winning craft lager made with English malted barley and champagne yeast. Add in two chutneys and a box of Wholemeal & Extra Virgin Olive Oil Crackers, and you’ve got a spread fit for the World’s Best Dad.

Or there’s the Ploughman’s Hamper of Luxury Cheese & Craft Beer, bringing together four rich and creamy cheeses – Black Bomber, Purple Vale, spicy Red Devil and smoky Beech Wood – with two bottles of Welsh-made Bragdy Conwy beer, a pair of chutneys, crackers, Borettane onions in balsamic vinegar and a Welsh slate serving board. A proper ploughman’s feast, and then some.

For the cheese-loving dad

For the dad who needs no excuse to build a cheeseboard, our Quintessential Cheese Hamper is hard to beat. Inside, he’ll find five award-winning cheeses: Black Bomber, Red Storm, Beech Wood, Green Thunder and Red Devil. They’re joined by two chutneys – Balsamic Caramelised Onion and Pear, Date & Cognac – and a box of Wholemeal & Extra Virgin Olive Oil Crackers. Everything he needs for an exceptional cheeseboard, all wrapped up in a beautiful hamper.

For the wine-loving dad

Pair exceptional cheese with a bottle of something special and you’re guaranteed a place in Dad’s good books. The Luxury Cheese & Wine Hamper unites four of our most popular cheeses – Black Bomber, Rock Star, Red Storm and Truffle Trove – with a full-sized bottle of Florao Quinta da Fonte Souto, a smooth, fruit-forward Portuguese red. Add in two chutneys, a velvety Rock Star Cheese & Wine Bake and a box of Wholemeal & Extra Virgin Olive Oil Crackers, and this is foodie heaven, wrapped up in a slate-blue hamper.
