Crafted by Hawke's Bay Artisans
We proudly partner with local makers, growers, and producers who bring the flavours and character of Hawke's Bay to every gift box.
Supporting Local Makers
We believe every gift should tell a local story. That's why we work with passionate Hawke's Bay producers whose dedication, craftsmanship, and resilience inspire us every day.

Six producers. Six stories. A full picture of what Hawke's Bay makes best.
ORGANICALLY GROWN. DISTINCTLY HAWKE'S BAY.
Te Mata Figs
Twenty-nine varieties of fig flourish along the Te Karamu Stream in Havelock North, tended with care on a fully certified organic 'figgery' that honours the land as much as the fruit. Te Mata Figs has built something rare — a place where the warm Mediterranean-style climate of Hawke's Bay is captured in every batch, from fresh figs to beautifully crafted preserves. When you find one of their products in a gift box, you're holding the result of a genuine passion for growing things well.
A CENTURY OF CRAFT IN EVERY BOTTLE.
Mission Estate
New Zealand's oldest winery has been tending Hawke's Bay soils since 1851 — long before the region earned its world-class reputation. The Fete Sparkling Wine we include in our gift boxes is grown from vineyards in Taradale where vines have produced exceptional fruit for over a hundred years. Mission Estate is a living piece of New Zealand history, and every sip carries the weight and warmth of that legacy. For a gift that says something, this is it.
HOME GROWN. HANDMADE. GENUINELY LOCAL.
St Andrews Limes
At St Andrews Limes, the fruit comes from their own trees and what follows is made entirely by hand. It's a simple philosophy that produces something extraordinary — a range of lime products with a brightness and integrity that mass production simply cannot replicate. From their grove to our gift boxes, St Andrews Limes is the kind of small producer that makes Hawke's Bay special: deeply rooted in place, guided by craft, and bursting with flavour.
HANDMADE COUVERTURE CHOCOLATE. A FAMILY TRADITION.
Silky Oak Chocolates
There are chocolate makers, and then there is Silky Oak. This family-owned business pours genuine craft into every piece — using quality couverture chocolate and time-honoured techniques to produce something you can taste the difference in. Their factory, museum, and café have become something of a Hawke's Bay institution, but it's the chocolates that keep people coming back. Rich, handmade, and utterly indulgent, Silky Oak is the finishing touch that makes any gift box feel truly special.
SINGLE-SITE. SMALL BATCH. TRACEABLE TO THE HIVE.
Aristaeus Honey
Named for the Greek god of beekeeping, Aristaeus Honey takes traceability seriously — every jar can be traced back to the exact site it came from. With hives located across sunny Hawke's Bay and a commitment to small-batch production, each release is genuinely limited edition. This isn't commodity honey. It's the kind of product that reminds you what honey is supposed to taste like: complex, raw, and unmistakably local. A jar of Aristaeus is a jar of place.
PRESSED WITH PASSION. ROOTED IN HAWKE'S BAY.
Aquiferra Olive Oil
Tim and Jess Groves moved to Hawke's Bay in 2020 and found exactly what they were looking for — a beautiful olive grove and a community of makers who take quality personally. Since taking over Aquiferra in 2021, they've built on the grove's foundations to produce premium olive oils that speak directly of this land: golden, fragrant, and pressing with character. Farming is in their blood; Hawke's Bay is now in their hearts. The result is olive oil worth seeking out.
