It can be hard to know what will make loved ones happy come Christmas Day. Whether it’s family, friends or significant others, choosing the right present can be tricky. We’ve done the legwork for you and found an array of gift ideas to make Christmas shopping easy — we’ve even included presents for pooches and a geographically protected beer.

Give a uniquely protected Czech lager this Christmas

(Budweiser Budvar)

Unbeknown to some, the Original Budweiser Budvar is independent — owned by the people of the Czech Republic, in fact. Brewed using whole-cone Saaz hops, pristine water from an Ice Age aquifer, Moravian malting barley, and Budvar’s heritage lager yeast, it’s been brewed in Budweis, Czech Republic, since 1895. The unique combination of ingredients is the reason Budvar legally can’t be brewed anywhere else, and why Budweiser Budvar Original Lager was awarded a Protected Geographic Indication status from the EU in 2004 — the same as Champagne and Scotch whisky. Available at most major retailers, including Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Asda, Waitrose, and Morrisons, as well as online.

Give thoughtfully this festive season with stylish accessories

(Moss Bros)

This Christmas, thoughtful and intentional gifting is at the forefront. Sure, it’s the thought that counts, but giving thoughtfully will mean so much more. Don’t give just any scarf, give one that’s made extra-long with extra-soft fibres for someone who’s extra keen on keeping cosy. How about easing their return to the office after the holidays with a new work bag, on which the handle has been designed just-so to feel just-right in their hand? Or chinos made so comfy, the most committed athleisure-fan on your list will be converted. Even socks rise above stocking-filler status when they’re spun from smoothest mercerised cotton.
