Breakfast Blend Tea, 125g Tin
Catalogue Code:2002080
- This is a robust, malty leaf tea from unblended Assam leaves grown in the prized Brahmaputra Valley in Northeast India. The broken leaves make a strong brew with a malty, full-bodied flavour. Taste and Strength Robust, malty and full-bodied When to Drink Best in the morning Origin Assam Brewing Information Use boiling water and brew for 3-5 minutes depending on taste. Best drunk with milk Storage advice Airtight container, preferably a tea caddy
Carnevale Nuts, 285g jar
Catalogue Code:2000460
- For this carnival of nuts, we took our best Colosso macadamia nuts, pecans, cashews and almonds, roasted them gently in extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkled them lightly with salt. The result is a jar full of crunch and flavour, delicious before dinner with a chilled aperitif.
Old English Hunt Marmalade Biscuits
Catalogue Code:2003743
- Our Old English Hunt Marmalade was allegedly made for the historic Pytchley Hunt in Northamptonshire and goes supremely well on hot buttered toast. But then we discovered that it works just as well in this very good biscuit. Packed into an illustrated tin, these make a thoughtful gift for all those who love marmalade, hunting or biscuits – or all three.
Old English Hunt Marmalade, 340g
Catalogue Code:2003684
- The Pytchley Hunt has been well chronicled from the mid 17th century. The traditional pre-hunt breakfast prizes the energy-giving properties of marmalade, and this medium-cut recipe is exactly how they like it.
Sandringham Blend Coffee, 250g Tin
Catalogue Code:2002330
- Originally produced for Queen Alexandra, consort of King Edward VII, and popular ever since, this coffee is smoky and aromatic with a pungent punch. The powerful flavour makes it an excellent after-dinner blend.
Sir Nigel's Marmalade Dundee Cake, 750g
Catalogue Code:2004028
- Feeling in an experimental mood one day, we took our already rather good Dundee cake and added a secret ingredient – a generous helping of Sir Nigel’s Vintage Orange Marmalade. The rich, bitter preserve adds an indefinable edge to the cake, thanks to the sharp oranges and soft chunks of peel. An excellent and lighter alternative to the traditional Christmas cake, it should go down very well at any time of year.

Superb Dark Selection, 250g Box
Catalogue Code:2006811
- These chocolates have been enjoyed by Fortnum’s customers for nearly a century and so have been fully tried and tested. Each one is handmade in England using traditional techniques; for example, the fondant cream centres are piped into starch trays instead of plastic moulds and the ginger is cooked in small batches in a copper pan. Highlights include Rose & Violet Creams, covered in bitter chocolate to complement the sweetness, and Butterscotch Praline, a creamy milk chocolate centre dotted with pieces of crunchy butterscotch and nougatine and covered in our own blend of rich, dark chocolate.
