Bravo de Esmolfe Apple Extra Jam with Cinnamon
The aromatic smoothness of PDO Bravo de Esmolfe Apple wrapped in the delicate warmth of cinnamon.
The PACK 3 Jams Ideal for Portuguese Cheeses – Flavors of Portugal is the perfect choice for those looking to offer an authentic Christmas gift, full of flavor and tradition. This set celebrates the encounter between Portuguese artisanal jams and the century-old art of national cheese making, proposing a tasting experience that combines texture, aroma, and emotion.
Handcrafted with Portuguese fruits and ingredients, each jam is prepared in small batches, respecting the rhythms of nature and recipes passed down through generations. The elegant and contemporary packaging makes this pack a distinctive gift, ideal for those who appreciate the best of the Portuguese table and the pleasure of sharing unique moments during the holiday season.
Inspired by the timeless pairing of jams and cheeses, this pack presents a selection of three complementary flavors that balance sweetness, acidity, and intensity. These jams were created to highlight the aromatic notes and texture of Portuguese cheeses, turning any cheese board into an unforgettable sensory experience.
Perfect to serve at Christmas dinners, family gatherings, or cozy tasting moments by the fireplace, this set invites you to discover the flavors that define Portugal — a country of strong traditions, remarkable flavors, and unmatched hospitality.
Made with Bravo de Esmolfe Apple (PDO), one of Portugal’s most noble varieties, this jam stands out for its intense aroma and delicate texture. Cinnamon adds a warm and comforting note, evoking the scent of traditional Portuguese Christmas desserts. Its balanced sweetness and slightly acidic profile make it ideal for pairing with cured sheep cheeses such as Serpa PDO or Azeitão PDO.
When combined with soft, buttery cheeses, it releases all its freshness and elegance, creating a perfect contrast between the fruit’s sweetness and the creaminess of the cheese — a harmonious fusion that reflects the best of Portuguese tradition.
The union of honey fig from Trás-os-Montes with Algarve orange results in a jam with a rich and sophisticated profile. The addition of Portuguese fortified wine enhances the aromas and introduces notes of dried fruits and spices, creating a perfect balance between sweetness and depth.
It’s the ideal pairing for aged goat cheeses, blue cheeses, or São Jorge Cheese PDO, offering a complex and memorable gastronomic experience. During Christmas, it can also be used as a topping for cheesecakes or as the final touch on artisanal cheese boards, providing an irresistible contrast between sweet and savory.
A symbol of Portuguese confectionery, Pumpkin Jam is a must-have on Christmas tables. In this special version, pumpkin is slowly cooked with rosemary and eucalyptus honey, which give it floral and balsamic notes, while orange adds brightness and freshness. Cinnamon evokes warm and nostalgic tones, and almonds from Trás-os-Montes add texture and elegance.
Versatile and profoundly Portuguese, this jam is perfect to accompany Serra da Estrela PDO, Azeitão PDO, and Beira Baixa PDO cheeses, as well as cottage cheese. It’s also excellent when served with rustic bread, savory crackers, pancakes, or bolo-rei (traditional Portuguese Christmas cake). A flavor that evokes childhood memories and celebrates the sweetness of Christmas gatherings.
Portugal’s cheese-making tradition is one of the richest in the world. This pack was designed to highlight the personality of each cheese, from the softest to the most intense. Below are suggested pairings that combine meia.dúzia® jams with some of the country’s most renowned cheeses.
