Yes, gifts are great. This is especially true during the holidays, but also year-round on special occasions or just to make someone’s day. Who doesn’t love when a box arrives with their name on it?

With this in mind, just in time for the holidays, Appetito is introducing our inaugural “Gift Box” in conjunction with our generous friends at Bona Furtuna and Baldoria Spirits.

The combined retail value of all four items is over $80. The cost for the Appetito Gift Box (including shipping / handling) is $49.99. (Yes. You read that correctly).

What You Get:

Bona Furtuna “Everyday” Extra Virgin Olive Oil (500ml): 100% organic, cold-pressed from Sicilian heirloom olives. The olive oil is bright and balanced, with a peppery finish. It’s perfect for everyday cooking.
