Portuguese chestnut tradition elevated into a sophisticated experience.

meia.dúzia® Chestnut Cream with Vanilla and Liqueur Wine reveals an elegant and contemporary interpretation of one of Portugal’s most traditional flavors. The natural richness of chestnuts from Trás-os-Montes gains depth through Port Wine and aromatic delicacy thanks to vanilla, creating an intense, warm, and memorable cream.

Its silky and enveloping texture adapts to multiple gastronomic experiences. In pastry making, it transforms simple desserts into sophisticated compositions; spread on artisanal bread or warm brioche, it offers comfort and aromatic intensity; paired with cheeses and meats, it surprises with its balance between sweetness, salinity, and wine notes.

Each tasting transports you to the flavors of Portuguese autumn: roasted chestnuts, aged wine, warm wood, and traditional desserts reinterpreted with contemporary elegance. A cream created for those who appreciate deep, authentic, and emotionally engaging flavors.

Usage Suggestions

Bread & Pastry

Spread on rye bread, buttery brioche, warm croissants, or walnut bread, it reveals a creamy texture and deeply enveloping roasted notes. With scones or spice bread, it gains even greater aromatic depth.

Desserts & Pastry Making

Ideal for filling macarons, éclairs, chestnut cakes, moist roulades, or verrines with mascarpone and dark chocolate crumble. In cheesecake, it creates an elegant contrast between dairy freshness and caramelized intensity.

Pairs particularly well with creamy Queijo da Serra, Brie de Meaux PDO, Taleggio, or aged goat cheeses. The chestnut sweetness and wine profile balance the dairy richness and savory notes.

Meats & Creative Gastronomy

Excellent with roasted pork loin, smoked duck, or slow-cooked meats. It can be used as a sauce base or served in small amounts to create a sophisticated sweet-savory contrast.

Cocktails & Tasting

Interesting in wine-based cocktails and digestifs with Tawny Port, smooth whisky, bourbon, or coffee liqueur. It pairs elegantly with aged Port Wine and wood-aged spirits.
