Origin of raw materials
Roots and Flavors: Ingredients That Reveal Portugal
The flavors of the Travel Kit 6 Artisanal Jams – Portuguese Tiles reflect the true essence of Portugal. Each fruit and ingredient comes from regions rich in history, tradition, and unique growing conditions, then crafted artisanally to preserve its authentic character. This collection is a journey through Portugal’s countryside, mountains, and islands, where time, climate, and traditional knowledge come together to create products of excellence.
More than simple ingredients, they are living legacies of Portuguese gastronomy. Each jam represents the meeting point between ancestral know-how and innovation, preserving the regional flavors of Portugal while celebrating the country’s most genuine culinary treasures.
Azores Pineapple PDO
Grown in the traditional glass greenhouses of São Miguel Island, Azores Pineapple PDO is the result of a slow, artisanal process that can take up to two years. Protected cultivation and the humid Atlantic climate give the fruit its delicate sweetness, balanced acidity, and unmistakable aroma. It is an icon of Azorean agriculture and one of the purest expressions of Atlantic flavor.
With vibrant tropical notes, this pineapple brings an exotic and refreshing touch to the jams, evoking the lush landscapes and ocean surroundings that shape the culinary identity of Portugal’s islands.
Bravo de Esmolfe Apple PDO
Originating from the village of Esmolfe in central Portugal, this apple is hand-harvested in family orchards and protected by its designation of origin. Small and aromatic, it stands out for its delicate texture and naturally sweet flavor. Its cultivation follows traditional methods that respect both land and time, preserving an agricultural practice deeply rooted in Portugal’s rural heritage.
This fruit reflects the character of the Beira Alta region — simple, authentic, and rich in depth — inspiring jams that recall crisp autumn afternoons and the warmth of kitchens shaped by tradition.
Honey Drop Fig
The Honey Drop Fig, with its thin skin and honeyed, sweet flesh, is one of the most prized varieties from southern Portugal, particularly in Alentejo and Ribatejo. Its name refers to the golden drop that appears when the fruit reaches perfect ripeness. It is a symbol of the Portuguese Mediterranean summer and a cornerstone of traditional convent sweets, where figs represented abundance and generosity.
In jam form, its rich texture and intense flavor recall the golden inland fields and the patient craft of traditional preparation, transforming every tasting moment into a gesture filled with memory and identity.
Algarve Orange PGI
Grown under constant sunshine and Atlantic breezes, Algarve Orange PGI is one of Portugal’s most iconic fruits. With thin skin and abundant juice, it offers the perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, reflecting the privileged microclimate of the southern region. Handpicked at peak ripeness, it preserves its freshness and vibrant aroma.
Jams made with this orange capture the energy of the Algarve — bright, sweet, and welcoming — bringing to each spoonful the warmth of southern traditions and landscapes.
Blueberries from Vila Nova de Famalicão
Sourced from small farms in the Minho region, blueberries from Vila Nova de Famalicão are handpicked at the ideal moment of ripeness. The temperate climate and fertile northern soils give them a concentrated, balanced flavor with sweet and slightly tart notes. These berries reflect how Portuguese agriculture successfully blends tradition with sustainability.
Used in jams, these blueberries express the spirit of northern Portugal: fresh, intense, and authentic. Their deep color and fruity aroma make each creation a tribute to nature and the dedication of local growers.
Madeira Wine
Madeira Wine is one of the world’s oldest fortified wines and a true gem of Portuguese winemaking. Produced on the mountainous island of Madeira, it develops its distinctive character through a unique aging process involving heat and time, resulting in notes of dried fruit, honey, and caramel. It is a wine that carries centuries of history and maritime journeys, taking Portugal’s name across the seas.
In orange jam, this wine adds elegance and depth, combining the fruit’s citrus freshness with the wine’s aromatic richness. An ingredient that symbolizes the fusion of tradition, craftsmanship, and flavor.
Diplomata Ondina Mar Crackers
Artisanally produced by Diplomata Biscuit, Ondina Mar Crackers are thin, crisp, and 100% vegan. Made with simple, natural ingredients, they are the perfect complement to meia.dúzia® artisanal jams. Their subtle flavor and light texture highlight the fruity and spiced notes of the recipes, balancing sweetness and saltiness.
Inspired by the taste of the Portuguese sea, these crackers celebrate ingredient simplicity and the harmony between tradition and modernity. Paired with the jams, they create balanced and memorable tasting experiences — a true tribute to the Portuguese table and the art of hospitality.
Together, these ingredients tell the story of the land, the sea, and the people who make Portugal a country of authentic flavors. Each jam and cracker in the Experience Box – Portuguese Tiles expresses territory, dedication, and culture — a sweet and genuine way to celebrate the very best of Portuguese gastronomy.
