Customer photo review of Milk Chocolate & Marshmallow Clusters

Really yummy! Lovely smooth milk chocolate which really compliments the mini marshmallow pieces it enrobes. A nice alternative to a box of chocolates. Nicely boxed, so would make a lovely gift.

Really pretty, versatile, little Tapas Dish, which is very well made and beautifully decorated. Excellent size for Tapas or just putting some berries in, but it would also look good as a kitchen ornament.

Bought this as a gift for an Irish family member living in Canada. It's gorgeous, classic, and will absolutely remind them of home. The wee turf burners that come with it absolutely transport you down the country 😍

Customer photo review of Ats Us Nai Enamel Mug
MVerified
Second review. Should have written it before I gave the darker green Ats Us Nai mug away. I am therefore sharing on the left the pink one I bought from 'Visit Derry' and the blue one from the online store. I initially ordered a white mug as it was the only colour available however an extremely pleasant, helpful customer services lady phoned me to advise that she had been able to source a dark green one instead. Colour is true to the website green. Love these mugs will purchase more. Highly...

Yummy! Really lovely, natural vanilla flavoured marshmallow with a fantastic texture. Nice wee treat alone straight from the tub, also tastes amazing in homemade S’mores, and with strawberries or other fruit dipped into it. Very versatile, do am looking forward to trying out more ways to use this!

Bought this for my husband...he loves the smell of turf fires - it reminds him of holidays in Ireland. We love this wee house. Gives a great turf smell but not overpowering and the smoke coming out of the chimney looks fab. Will be buying more as gifts for others.

Really tasty and versatile relish! The chargrilling gives the peppers a beautiful burst of flavour. Lovely with cheese and crackers, as a dip or at a barbecue. I love the little pot too, the lid and label are so pretty - would make a nice little gift!

Customer photo review of Fiery Jalapeno Relish
JayneVerified
Really nice Jalapeño relish with a good kick of heat, but without being too overpowering. Very versatile - great addition to the barbecue, adds an extra kick to burgers in a bun. Also a lovely accompaniment to cheese and crackers or added to cheese in Toasted Sandwiches. A great item to have in the fridge!

Customer photo review of Shipyard Incense Match Box
Joshua
I first came across ‘Shipyard’ at the Titanic Experience in Belfast. Bought the incense because I was intoxicated by the scent. Rugged, rich and lightly Smokey (in the good way). After purchasing I came home to Edinburgh, found the shop online and bought the air fresheners, another pack of the incense and the candle. This scent is amazing and I would love it if it came in a cologne, body wash, soap, oils!!! Please please!

I made an Irish hamper for my dad to remind him of home. I included these crisps. It's safe to say he loved them! Cheese and onion are his favourite flavour of crisps and he loved these. Thank you :)

Looks just like the wee cottages down at the Ulster Folk Museum, green door and all! The wee turf fires smell just like the real thing, perfect for someone who does have a fire!

Customer photo review of Tiocfaidh Ar Latte Mug | Fado Fado
Debbie
As a certified coffee addict, this “Tiocfaidh Ár Lattè” mug is basically my new emotional support mug ☕️ My husband gifted it to me and it’s perfect — the pun is elite, the vibe is strong, and somehow my morning lattè tastes even better in it. Safe to say it’s now my official daily coffee mug. 10/10 gift for any fellow caffeine addict.

Customer video review of My First Wee Shloer Enamel Mini Mug
LaurenVerified
Ordered this for Xmas for my wee boy and it’s the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! I cannot wait to see him on Xmas day having his first wee shloer. Also it’s fab that he can’t break it when he inevitably throws it around the house

My 2 year old had the older mugs and dropped it so we got her a new one with “Wee Dote” on it. She loves it and has to get tea in it nearly everyday for breakfast 🤗

So yummy just eating it straight from the tub with a spoon! The nicest marshmallow ever I have tasted. Really delicious natural strawberry flavour, lovely texture. I love it with ice cream, but very versatile and can be used in so many ways. Nicely packaged too.

We named the tables at our wedding dinner after some of our favorite Belfast pubs (we met at one of them!), and these were the perfect way to indicate which table was which.

Customer photo review of Achill Island Sea Salt Fudge & Milk Chocolate Bar | Skelligs Chocolate
Jayne
Really like Skelligs range of chocolate. First time trying this one and was not disappointed! Lovely, smooth milk chocolate bar, and the salted fudge pieces really complement the chocolate. I like the very subtle salty flavour of fudge coming through. Nicely boxed so would make a nice little gift.

This stuff is magical! I didn't really taste the liqueur, but Melting Pot Fudge is the best. I think I've ordered just about all the flavors online and have never been disappointed.

After reading another review regarding shipping that brought this candles rating down, I needed to comment, this is the BEST. CANDLE. EVER. Honestly, nails the smokey, fireside scent. I've bought probably close to ten!

Customer photo review of Raw Northern Irish Honey | Nightingale Nectar+2

Delicious jar of local raw honey! Love the flavour, and the more solid texture, which I prefer over the runny types. Really nice simply spread on buttered toast. The pretty glass jar would make it ideal to give as a wee gift.

Customer photo review of Salted Caramel Fudge | Melting Pot
Ingrid
Holy moly, scrumptious stuff! Perfect little something to give as a gift. Be sure to buy at least twice what you plan on, because once you taste it you'll end up eating at least 1/2 of what you buy.

First of all the bag design looks amazing and would look really nice to put in a Christmas hamper. The crisps as always from Glens of Antrim, are perfect - just the right thickness, nicely cooked and the flavour is lovely but not overpowering. Added bonus - gluten free too.
