Gifting, the Scottish way

Send a wee bit of Scotland
to someone you love

Whether they're homesick in Houston or discovering their roots in Toronto, a Caledonia Box lands on the doorstep like a hug from home — hand-curated, beautifully wrapped, and full of the good stuff from 100% Scottish makers.

Made for the moments

A box for every reason to think of home

Some gifts mark a date on the calendar. Others just say "I ken you miss it." Here's where a Caledonia Box fits beautifully.

🎇
25 January

Burns Night

Toast the Bard from afar. Shortbread, a wee dram sample and tablet make the perfect long-distance Burns Supper for expats who still ken every verse of Address to a Haggis.

🎄
The festive season

A Scottish Christmas

Post can't make it to Scotland this year? Send Scotland to them. A December box wrapped in tartan ribbon is the parcel they'll save till Christmas morning.

💛
Just because

A homesick care box

For the student in their first term away, the nurse working abroad, the new parent far from their mum. A coorie box that says you're loved, and you're missed.

🎂
Birthdays & milestones

Expat birthdays

Skip the gift card in an email. Give the friend across the ocean a birthday box of artisan crafts and treats they simply cannot buy where they are.

Not sure of the occasion? A rolling monthly gift subscription keeps the wee reminders of home arriving all year long — no wrapping paper required.

Simple as a shortbread round

How gifting works

Three steps between you and a very happy face on the other side of the world.

01

Choose the box & plan

Pick a one-off gift box or a 3, 6 or 12-month gift subscription. The longer the plan, the better the value — and 12-month prepay saves around 15%. Boxes start at £34/month.

02

Write your wee note

Add the recipient's details, choose the delivery date, and pen a personal gift message. We'll print it on a linen-finish card and tuck it inside — no soulless "you've received a gift" email.

03

We wrap & ship

Your box is packed by hand in Edinburgh, wrapped in tartan ribbon, and sent worldwide. You'll get tracking; they'll get a wee taste of home. Shipping is added at checkout.

The gifts that made them greet (happy tears)

My daughter moved to Vancouver last year and cried when the shortbread and tablet arrived on her birthday. Said it smelled like her gran's kitchen. Worth every penny.

Sent a 6-month subscription to my dad in Sydney who's proud as anything of his roots. Every box gives us something to blether about on our Sunday call. Braw idea, this.

I did the Burns Night box for my American husband who fell in love with Scotland (and me!) on holiday. He wore the wee tartan scarf all January. The gift card note made him melt.

Gifting FAQ

Who pays for shipping on a gift?

You do, as the sender — shipping is added at your checkout, so your recipient never sees a bill. Indicative rates are £9.95 within the UK, £16.95 to Europe, and £24.95 to the US & rest of the world, per box.

For subscriptions, shipping is charged per delivery so the boxes keep arriving with nothing owed at the other end.

Can I choose exactly when it arrives?

Aye — pick a delivery date in the gift builder and we'll ship to land on or near it. For date-sensitive occasions like Burns Night or Christmas, we recommend ordering 7–14 days ahead to allow for international post.

What's actually in the box?

Each monthly box is a curated mystery of 7–10 Scottish goods — think all-butter shortbread, tablet, whisky-marmalade, a tartan or wool item, artisan crafts, and a wee dram sample, all from independent Scottish makers. The contents change every month so no two boxes are the same.

Does the gift auto-renew after the plan ends?

No. Gift subscriptions (3, 6 and 12-month) are prepaid and simply finish at the end of the term — no surprise charges. If your recipient falls in love with it, they can continue on their own rolling plan.

Is there anything with alcohol in the box?

Some boxes include a small whisky-marmalade or a wee dram sample. Recipients must be 18 or over (21 in some countries). If you'd prefer an alcohol-free box for the recipient, just tell us in the gift message and we'll curate accordingly.
