This gets bought for the name on the box, which is a perfectly good reason. British, traditional, and recognisable on sight as an expensive gift.
Built for two. A cup and a biscuit each morning through December, which makes it a gift for a couple more than for one person.
Prices are approximate USD list prices and change during the season. Affiliate disclosure.
