Gift basket

Looking to put together a gift basket that’s a little more “wow” and a lot less “meh”? At Barely Aged, we’re all about turning wine, cheese and little pantry treats into thoughtful, custom gifts that feel like you actually know the person. Drop by our cosy neighbourhood spot in Robertson Quay, or reach out to chat about how we can help you build your own wine-and-cheese style gift basket.

We’re a wine and cheese bar and retail shop, so you can:

• Pick out bottles from our wine store

• Add artisan cheese and tasty bites

• Turn it into a chill-at-home grazing moment instead of a stiff, formal hamper

• Grab extras for yourself (we won’t tell!)

• Arrange pickup, or enjoy free delivery for wine orders above $200

Come by, say hi, and we’ll help you build something that looks great and, more importantly, tastes even better.

Why a wine & cheese gift basket works so well

You could send a random box of snacks.

Or you could send a hamper gift basket that basically says, “Here’s your night in, sorted.”

A wine-and-cheese themed gift hamper is perfect when you:

• Want something a bit classier than cookies and instant coffee

• Need a thank-you gift with actual personality

• Are celebrating a housewarming, birthday, promotion or farewell

• Want an easy “date night in a box” idea

Because we’re a neighbourhood wine and cheese destination, you’re not stuck with fixed, generic sets. You can mix and match from:

• Curated bottles from our wine shop

• Soft, hard and blue cheese

• Cold cuts and charcuterie

• Snacks and pantry items that actually go with wine (not random biscuits)

Same idea as a classic hamper basket, but much more “you”.

What can go inside your gift hamper

We don’t sell a one-size-fits-all wrapped hamper, but we do have everything you need to build your own gift hamper that feels properly curated.

Here are some easy combos:

1. Wine-led gift basket

Start with a hero bottle (or three):

• Crisp whites and chilled styles from our white wine collection

• Reds including pinot noir, cabernet sauvignon and more

• Fun bubbly and sparkling wine for celebrations

If your wine order goes above $200, you enjoy free delivery – perfect when you’re sending a bigger hamper-style gift.

2. Cheese-focused set

Build a “mini cheese bar at home” moment:

• Buttery soft Brie and Truffle Brie

• Hard, nutty cuts like Gruyere 18 Months or Gouda 12 Months

• Funky blue styles such as blue cheese like Gorgonzola

• Jams, olives and crackers to round it all out

You can also look at our ready-made cheese board ideas as inspiration for what to include.

3. Wine, cheese & charcuterie mix

For a fuller experience, turn your hamper baskets into complete grazing kits:

• A couple of bottles from our wine store

• A mix of cheese cuts

• Cured meats from our charcuterie range

• Olives, tinned seafood and pantry treats

Wrap it up nicely, add a handwritten note, and you’ve basically gifted them a night at Barely Aged… without making them leave the sofa.

How we help you build your hamper gift basket

We’re not a factory line for hampers. We’re a cosy Rob Quay hangout with people who actually like talking about wine and cheese!

Here’s how we can help you put something together:

1. Come by the bar
   Visit us at Robertson Quay, have a look at the bottles, cheeses and snacks, and tell us who you’re gifting.

2. Chat about taste and budget
   Like it light and fresh? Big and bold? Unsure? Our team can recommend a few options that make sense together.

3. Pick your anchor items
   Choose a couple of hero pieces – a special bottle, a standout cheese – then fill in the rest with supporting snacks.

4. Use our boards as a guide
   Our charcuterie board line-up shows tried-and-tested combos. You can mirror those in your gift basket, or scale them up or down.

5. Sort out pickup or delivery
   Pickup is usually ready in 24 hours for pre-orders. If your gift is wine-heavy and adds up above $200, you get free delivery on the wine side too.

No stiff scripts, no hard sell. Just neighbours helping neighbours give better presents.

Gift basket alternatives: grazing platters & boards

Sometimes a physical hamper isn’t the best fit. Maybe you’re hosting instead of gifting. Maybe you want everything plated and ready to go.

That’s where our platters and boards come in.

We offer personalised cheese and charcuterie boards for:

• Small birthday or farewell gatherings

• Team drinks and casual client evenings

• Cosy date nights at home

• Picnic-style hangs by the river

Our team can help you put together:

• Cheese-only boards

• Charcuterie-only spreads

• Mixed cheese & cuts

• Add-ons like jams, crackers and pantry bites

If you like the idea of a hamper gift basket but need something that guests can dive into immediately, a ready-made grazing-style board is a great alternative.

You can explore our full range of boards and party platter ideas online, then swing by or reach out to plan your spread.

FAQs about wine & cheese gift baskets in Singapore

Do you sell pre-packed gift baskets in Singapore?

We don’t have standard, pre-wrapped hamper sets, but we do help you build your own gift basket using our wines, cheeses, charcuterie and pantry items. Think of it as a customised hamper rather than an off-the-shelf box.

Can you help me choose what goes into my gift hamper?

Yes! Tell us who it’s for and what they like, and we can suggest wine, cheese, and snack combos that work well together. You can also use our existing boards and party platters as a guide.

Can I include wine in my gift basket and get it delivered in Singapore?

You can absolutely build a wine-focused hamper using bottles from our wine shop. Delivery is available for wine orders, and we offer free delivery for wine orders above $200, which is handy when your gift basket is centred on a few special bottles.

I want something like a hamper gift basket for a small office gathering. Any options?

Yes. For groups and small teams, many clients prefer our grazing-style boards instead of a packed hamper. We can personalise cheese and charcuterie spreads for up to about 40 people at our space, or prepare boards for you to take away and serve at the office.

Can you do a gift basket-style set that’s good for a date night at home?

Definitely. A popular idea is a bottle or two of wine, a couple of complementary cheeses, some charcuterie, olives and crackers. It’s basically a mini charcuterie and cheese board that you can lay out at home like your own private wine bar.

Is it better to order a cheese platter or to build my own hamper baskets?

If you want something guests can immediately dig into, our ready-made boards and cheese platters are perfect. If you’re sending a present and want it to feel like a “care package”, building a custom gift hamper with wine, cheese and snacks is a great move.

Can I taste the wines before deciding what to put in my gift basket?

Yes, that’s one of the perks of building your hamper with us. We pour over 30 wines by the glass, so you can come by, taste a few, and then choose bottles for your gift with confidence.

Is Barely Aged easy to get to if I’m picking up a hamper-style gift in Singapore?
