Clan Artisan

Clan Artisan has searched every far corner of Scotland to find the luxury products that truly make them proud of their Scottish roots.

They try to buy directly from each of the small businesses they work with, so with each gift box purchased, it helps to support the small independent businesses throughout Scotland.

The company was founded by and is run by two Jens. Jen McEwan and Jen Tervit, launching back in 2018, it was Jen M and her business partner at the time, Karen, who came up with the idea to gather artisan producers from Scotland and showcase them in luxury gift boxes.

The Damn Fine Cheese Company – Black Gold & English Fizz – “Cleanses the palate, cutting down the maturity, and leaving the divine flavours of the black gold, with notes of soft fizzy citrus on the palate.”

The Damn Fine Cheese Company – Mature & English Fizz- “Soft citrus is absorbed by the mature cheddar, which is on the milder side, leaving a blend that works with or without the sparkling wine.”
