The landscapes turn shades of russet, gold and deep green, the evenings draw in, and there's a familiar chill in the air. Across Scotland, forests and glens change colour, mist settles over the lochs and the first signs of the colder months begin to appear.
It's the season for wrapping up warm, heading out into the crisp air and coming home to something cosy. For warming flavours, candlelit evenings, autumn walks and all those little comforts that make this time of year one of our favourites.
And that's exactly what inspired our October Heartbox. We wanted every item to have a place in the story of the box: something you can wear as the temperature drops, something delicious to enjoy, something to bring the feeling of a Scottish autumn into your home and, of course, a few surprises along the way.
There's also a little more choice this month, giving you the opportunity to make your October Heartbox feel even more you, while still keeping that excitement of discovering what else we've tucked inside.
So wherever in the world your October finds you, we hope you'll pour yourself something warm, get cosy and enjoy a little taste of the Scottish season with us.
