Our story began in 1886 when Walter Whittard first set up shop on London&#39;s bustling Fleet Street selling the finest tea, coffee and hot chocolate. Over 130 years later, Whittard of Chelsea has become a global aspirational brand, but we remain true to our founder&#39;s approach: to &quot;buy the best.&quot;

🎄 Welcome to a Whittard Christmas, The Home of Great Taste. 🎄 The team has had so much fun bringing the sparkle of Christmas to life! From day one, it was all hands-on deck (and mugs in hand) preparing for our busiest time of the year. Our 2024 collection is a celebration of the season’s iconic flavours, aromas, and indulgences, designed to transport you back to cherished memories. While Christmas may feel different in adulthood, it’s the old traditions and the creation of new ones that keep its magic alive. Whether you're humming along to WHAM with a steaming hot chocolate in your favourite Christmas mug, gathering for family board games, or debating the ever-controversial sprouts, these moments bring the spirit of the season to life. From curating unforgettable festive experiences to offering the finest quality gifts, we’re here to make this Christmas truly special for you and your loved ones. We are proud to present our campaign showcase – join us in the magic! ✨☕ #ChristmasAd #RetailNews #ChristmasIsComing
