Ethical Bedding Luxury Candles and Sleep Spray

Ethical Bedding is a beautiful brand with a superb vision for planet friendly positive sleep and a range of high-end products to match.  Their luxury scented candles are the first in our Last Minute Christmas gift recommendations. Crafted to be friendly to you, friendly to the environment and aesthetically stunning, they make for great gifting. Available in two scents (Natural Cologne and Just James), they are made using a natural soy-coconut wax, fragranced with sophisticated blends of essential oils designed exclusively for Ethical Bedding by world class perfumier, Daniel Visentin.

The result is sublime

With Just James, expect subtle sweetness designed specifically to aid sleep and relaxation. They have utilised an essential oil blend of lavender, eucalyptus and rosemary to achieve this sophisticated yet balanced fragrance.

Natural Cologne is a different take and it aims to refresh and uplift. A deep citrus blend of bergamot, orange, petitgrain, litsea cubera and rosewood have been masterfully combined to achieve this invigorating yet subtle fragrance.

HYKE Gin

HYKE Gin is the world’s first sustainable grape gin and it’s made right here in the UK in Sussex. A gin with planet friendly credentials and amazing levels of craftsmanship, you have to give it a go this Christmas. 

Give the gift of a greener G&T this Christmas with HYKE Gin. Whether you’re giving up sellotape, using recyclable wrapping paper, or forgoing Christmas cards, gifting HYKE Gin to your friends and family is the perfect way to extend your sustainability efforts for the festive season.

How is it different? The grapes are distilled to create a grape spirit, before being blended with grain spirit and further combined with expertly blended botanicals, including juniper, myrrh, rooibos and coriander to craft an exceptionally unique drink. Aesthetically and flavour wise, this gin is a triumph. We adored the citrus notes and complexity of the balanced botanicals, as well as the exciting grape backdrop that has lead to so many awards for this gin.

Using grapes as its base ingredient is what gives this award winning gin its inimitable flavour. The combination of botanicals in this environmentally friendly gin creates a sophisticated profile, a complexity, and stylishly sweet citric notes, meaning it pairs perfectly with a simple tonic, yet lends itself to more daring mixing if you’re gifting to a cocktail making loved one. This one-of-a-kind gin is a beautiful gift, thanks to its sophisticated bottle, featuring bronze foil detailing and sleek design.

Available in Tesco stores nationwide, as well as on Amazon, consciously priced at £26, making it an affordable gift that is certain to please any recipient.
