Comments about International Classic Gift Basket:

As someone who's done some extensive travelling and tasting, I found the selection of cheeses to be so-so at best. My entire family loved the English Cheddar and the Baby Holland cheese, but didn't like the rest. The water crackers are a common item found in grocery stores (like Ukrops), and I've bought better cheeses and bries from places like Whole Foods. I thought the selection of cheeses could have been better, but the entire basket was definitely not deserving of the term "gourmet", and not worth the price. I expected more, like some Schafskäse from Germany, like the kind they put on Döners; that would have been more special.
