The Sicilian gift set Londoners
give instead of wine.
Pressed from native Biancolilla olives grown at 900m altitude on a central Sicilian hillside — where Greek olive trees were planted 2,500 years ago, where Arab water systems still feed the groves, and where the island's isolation preserved cultivars long extinct on the Italian mainland. This is not Tuscan. This is Sicilian — and the difference is on the palate.
Choose the gift set
that fits the moment.
Every bundle comes from the same central Sicilian estate. Same Biancolilla cultivar. Same November 2025 harvest. The difference is in scale and occasion.

We don't sell single products.
We sell pairings.
Anyone can sell a bottle of olive oil. Anyone can sell a jar of honey. But the actual Sicilian breakfast — bread, EVOO, raw honey — is a ritual built on the combination. That is what we curate. Same family estate. Same November 2025 harvest. Same raw Sicilian wildflower honey that 30+ London retailers stock individually. Brought together in one box, one moment, one gift — packaged in our signature green gift box with a free handwritten card.
Why £15 supermarket hampers
get forgotten in the cupboard.
Generic gift baskets get opened once and forgotten. Cured meats sit in a fridge, novelty crackers go stale, the "olive oil" is a blend nobody recognises. Premium pantry gifts get used every morning for weeks.

Five gift moments where
this actually lands.
A premium gift only works if the recipient actually wants what you gave them — and remembers who gave it. Here are the five moments where a curated Sicilian pantry bundle outperforms wine, flowers, generic hampers, or another candle.
Instead of yet another bottle of wine.
Wine is the default. Wine is also forgettable. A small Sicilian olive oil and raw honey duo says "I thought about your kitchen, not your wine rack." Lands especially well with hosts who already have a stocked bar but love finding new pantry obsessions.
Best pick: Mini Essentials Duo £16. Want it tonight? Order via Deliveroo if you remembered the same afternoon.
Instead of flowers that die in a week.
The first thing anyone needs in a new kitchen is real olive oil and real honey. A Mediterranean Essentials or Sicilian Pantry bundle says "start your new kitchen with the good stuff." Used immediately, kept on the counter, remembered every meal.
Best pick: Mediterranean Essentials £19, or the Welcome Pack £29.95 if you want the signature green gift box.
The gift HR actually wants to send.
Generic corporate hampers all look the same — every recipient gets ten in December. A traceable single-estate Sicilian set is different, premium and remembered. Curated sets from our standard bundle catalogue.
For corporate enquiries email info@laverdeartisan.com or see our corporate gifting page.
Wedding favours guests actually take home.
Most wedding favours get left on the table. A small Sicilian EVOO or honey jar goes in the suitcase. Curated wedding favours from our standard catalogue, available at scale.
See our wedding gifting page for the full process and direct contact.
For the hamper that doesn't look like every other hamper.
December gift fatigue is real. Five generic department store hampers in a row blur together. A signature green LAVERDE box with EVOO, raw honey and Madrigal Colombian specialty coffee is unmistakably its own thing. Premium, traceable and immediately usable.
Best pick for Christmas: Welcome Pack £29.95 or the Premium Pantry Bundle £37. Order by 15 December for guaranteed UK delivery before Christmas.
The green box people remember.
Welcome Pack · £29.95100ml EVOO + 100g raw honey + 6 Madrigal Colombian specialty drip coffee bags, in a rigid green gift box that needs no extra wrapping. The complete Sicilian morning ritual — for hostess gifts, corporate onboarding, weekend trips (the 100ml passes airport security), and gifts that need to feel premium without feeling expensive.
