Holiday Gift Ideas from Seattle

Whether you're spending the holidays at home or traveling afar, warm hearts and support Seattle artisans by giving gifts made with care in the Emerald City. Central Co-op is proud to bring many exciting and diverse products made right here in town to our members and neighbors. Here are a few quick ideas for unique stocking stuffers and gifts that are sure to delight.

	Big Dipper Waxworks While most candle wax is made from petroleum, Big Dipper Waxworks candles are hand-made from beeswax right here in the Georgetown neighborhood of Seattle. Give the gift of relaxation, beauty and soothing aromas, plus the peace of mind of knowing that you are supporting a healthier planet and local economy.
	Ghostfish Brewing Co. Be the hero to your gluten-intolerant friends by giving them the gift of award-winning, gluten-free beer from Ghostfish Brewing Co.! Brewed in SODO, Ghostfish swept the gluten-free category at the 2016 U.S. Open Beer Championship.
	The Herbalist Adapt to Life, Acheless, Blubberwack, Dream Sleep, Love Potion #9, Relax-U, Speak-Easy… These are evocative names of some of the herbal extracts on offer from Seattle’s own The Herbalist.
	Hot Cakes Chocolate Sauce Can you buy love in a jar? Science may never know, but even scientists would do well to give the gift of Hot Cakes Dark Chocolate Sauce! Seattle’s own Hot Cakes Molten Chocolate Cakery has made available their small-batch dark chocolate sauce for you to place in the stocking of someone you treasure.
	Macrina Bakery’s Panettone Looking for a new holiday tradition? Try one of the most ancient ones around… Panettone from Macrina Bakery! It's a sweet bread stuffed with raisins and candied orange and lemon peel that originated in Milan, Italy
	Scrappy’s Bitters If you have an aspiring cocktail connoisseur in your life, consider the gift of a Classic Bitters Mini Set from Scrappy’s Bitters. It contains Seattle bartender Miles Thomas' unique interpretation of four time-honored bitters, plus a recipe card inside each box to get you started on your cocktail adventure!
	Slate Coffee Roasters When you give the gift of Slate Coffee Roasters' Cream + Sugar coffee, you’re giving a unique flavor from the farms of the Chacon Family in the Central Valley of Costa Rica and Aurelio Villartoro of La Libertad, Guatemala. This holiday season connect your loved ones with the people and places that make their mornings delicious!
	Theo Chocolate We now have Theo’s seasonal flavors: Gingerbread Spice, Cranberry Orange, Nutcracker Brittle, Peppermint Stick, and that they’re flying off the shelves. So help Santa create some smiles by giving the gift of Theo Chocolate! (And when you do, get another couple for yourself. You won’t regret it.)
	Timber City Ginger Beer Whoever coined the term “gingerly” obviously never tasted ginger. Because ginger is not careful or cautious. It’s intense and attention-getting. With nearly a pound of fresh ginger per gallon, Timber City Ginger Beer is the perfect gift for someone who makes bold choices. Available in original and seasonal flavors like Cranberry & Pear and Cranberry & Chamomile.
	Wei Kitchen’s Oils & Vinegar Handmade in Seattle in small batches, this Vietnamese-flavor-inspired oils and vinegar serve as great cooking products as well as condiments for any meal. Give Wei Kitchen’s Oils & Vinegar and enhance the pantry of someone you love!
