Some drinks are made for slowing down. Pour a glass, put something savoury within reach and suddenly there’s no particular reason to hurry on to whatever comes next.
That’s the idea behind Port & Nibbles. Cat Amongst the Pigeons Tawny sits at the heart of the gift, surrounded by artisan crackers, pink lake salt macadamias, olives, antipasto, mild salsa and roasted red capsicum tapenade. The savoury selection gives them plenty to graze on while the tawny brings its own warmer, slower character to the occasion.
Perhaps it’s being opened after dinner, enjoyed during a quiet evening at home or shared while conversation carries on considerably longer than expected. It might be marking a birthday, retirement or heartfelt thank you — or simply be destined for someone who appreciates a glass of tawny and doesn’t need much persuasion to sit down and enjoy it.
Lovingly prepared in our Gold Coast studio and presented in a black gift box, Port & Nibbles is made for taking your time. Open a few favourites, pour a glass and settle in — everything else can wait a little longer.
At Gift Basket Boutique, we believe every gift tells a story. This one begins with a glass of tawny, plenty of savoury things to graze on and one of those lovely occasions when nobody is watching the clock.
Picture them opening the box and discovering the bottle of tawny surrounded by savoury nibbles, already imagining a glass being poured and a few favourites finding their way onto the table.
It’s more than a drink and something to eat. It’s the pleasure of settling in, pouring a glass and letting the evening slow down while they graze, talk or simply enjoy a little uninterrupted time to themselves.
Warm, leisurely and made for lingering, Port & Nibbles creates one of those lovely moments where another nibble seems like a good idea, another small pour seems perfectly reasonable and nobody is particularly interested in checking the time.

We’ve answered some of the questions we’re asked most often to help you choose the perfect gift with confidence.
What makes Cat Amongst the Pigeons Tawny a good choice for this hamper?
The tawny brings a warmer, slower character to the gift and is particularly suited to leisurely sipping. Paired with plenty of savoury things to graze on, it creates a hamper that feels made for settling in and taking your time.
What savoury treats are included to enjoy with the tawny?
The selection includes artisan crackers, pink lake salt macadamias, olives, antipasto, mild salsa and roasted red capsicum tapenade. There’s a lovely variety of flavours and textures to explore while enjoying a glass.
When might someone enjoy Port & Nibbles?
It’s particularly lovely for a slower evening, after dinner or whenever there’s time to sit and linger over a glass. There’s no required occasion, though — sometimes the arrival of the hamper is reason enough to clear the schedule and open the tawny.

What makes a gourmet hamper a thoughtful gift?
A gourmet hamper offers the recipient something they can genuinely enjoy, while still feeling personal and considered. From a few tempting treats to a generous selection made for sharing, it’s a lovely way to mark an occasion, say thank you or simply let someone know they’re in your thoughts.
What occasions are gourmet hampers suitable for?
Gourmet hampers are wonderfully versatile and can be given for birthdays, congratulations, thank yous, housewarmings, get well wishes and many other occasions. They’re also a thoughtful choice when there isn’t an occasion at all and you simply want to send something delicious.
Why choose a gourmet hamper as a gift?
Food has a lovely way of bringing a little pleasure to everyday moments. A gourmet hamper gives the recipient a selection of treats to discover at their own pace, whether they enjoy them over a quiet afternoon, share them with family and friends or save a favourite for later.
Every gift is lovingly handcrafted in our Gold Coast studio and beautifully presented before it leaves our hands.
