13 of the Best Gift Baskets for Men [2022 Buying Guide]
It’s funny, but it seems like the guys in our lives can be the hardest people to shop for. Fortunately, gift baskets for men are the perfect solution!
We’ve come a long way from the classic fruit gift basket. Due to their booming popularity, a gourmet gift basket has become more diverse and creative.
This is why it’s much easier to find manly gift baskets than ever before. Baskets chock full of goodies that appeal to the most masculine tastes run the gamut, from gifts curated for the avid outdoorsman to craft beers, meats, and cheeses.
We’ve included some gift baskets for men in some of our other gift guides, but we were curious to see just how much there is to choose from out there. So we went hunting.
Cool Manly Gift Baskets for Manly Men
1. King’s Hamper
Whether he’s the king of your castle or king of the office, this fancy-pants gift basket was originally crafted for those titled members of the gentry to bring along while traveling to their country estates.
The gift basket idea includes king’s blend coffee, lucifer biscuits (made with ginger and chilis for a bit of a bite!), ginger and whiskey marmalade, and lots more.
2. Jerky Gift Box

3. Cookie BouTray
For he’s a jolly good fellow! We think this cookie arrangement would make a great retirement gift or gift of congratulations for the man who loves his cookies.

The stemmed cookies include a personal message of well-wishes, and you can choose between sixteen varieties of cookies to include on the tray. This cookie boutray comes in small, medium, and large sizes.
