Port first became popular in the U.K. during the late 17th century. Britain is not a felicitous place for grape cultivation, and so most of the wine drunk among gentlemen was imported from France. When William III placed an embargo on French wines, and began importing wine from Portugal instead. Port wine was sweeter and also headier than French wine because brandy was added to it at the end of the fermentation process.

Port hampers can also be enhanced with additional gift items like a bouquet of fragrant flowers or a living plant. Port hampers are a sophisticated gift for every occasion.
