Origin of raw materials
Passion Fruit Extra Jam with Ginger
Passion fruit belongs to the Passiflora family and grows on climbing plants. Passion fruit has a leathery, yellowish-green rind. Its gelatinous pulp is orange or yellowish and contains edible black seeds. In South America, Catholic missionaries called it the “fruit of passion”. They considered that the flowers of the plant resembled the crown of thorns placed on the head of Christ.
Raspberry and Redcurrant Extra Jam with Verbena
Currants come from a bush and there are different cultivars (different types of the same plant) that produce it. Gooseberries are usually ready to be picked between mid and late summer. The bush reaches heights of 1m to 2m, produces a greenish-yellow flower. Gooseberries grow on the branches of the bush, being a bright red fruit.
Lemon verbena is known mainly for its digestive properties, and is also a nervous system relaxant, fighting migraines, nervousness, restlessness and insomnia.
Raspberries fight fluid retention, rid the body of toxins, improve the health of hair, nails and skin. With few calories, raspberries are a great option for those on a diet. September is the last month of your season. One of the nutritional properties that stands out the most is the richness in vitamin C.
Strawberry Extra Jam with Port Wine and Chilli
Strawberries are a delicious way to protect your body. They are rich in antioxidants and therefore strengthen the body's defenses and prevent cardiovascular diseases. They also have high levels of water and potassium which have a mild diuretic effect.
Port wine, originating in the Douro region (Portugal), is aged in wood, and during its aging it gains greater aromatic complexity, thus showing the aromas of dried fruits, such as walnuts or almonds, and acquiring aromas of wood, coffee, chocolate and honey.
The Chilli, of intense red color, is a spice with a pungent flavor. The spiciness of the seeds causes a burning sensation triggered by the spiciness. Responsible for releasing substances such as endorphins, produced by the brain and which give a feeling of well-being. They also increase heart rate and body temperature, which is why it is considered one of the most aphrodisiac ingredients.
‘São Tomé’ Dark Chocolate Spread with Cherry and Brandy
- Origin of São Tomé dark chocolate: Democratic Republic of São Tomé and Príncipe was discovered in 1470 by Portuguese navigators, João de Santarém and Pedro Escobar. It was a Portuguese colony until July 12, 1975, when the islands gained their independence. Cocoa is another of the points that unites these two peoples, since it was Portugal that introduced these plantations to the islands. São Tomé ended up being known as the “Cocoa Island”. For this reason, the culture of these two islands continues to be linked by a common past and language.
- Flavor Traits: 'São Tomé' dark chocolate is bitter, with an aroma of coffee and blackberries, a chocolate with a unique and intense flavor, made with customers who prefer pure and traditional chocolate in mind. Despite having a similar appearance to other dark chocolates, it has a flavor that is nothing like these, and that makes us travel through new sensations. It is 100% cocoa and, unlike the dark chocolates on the market, it has a very strong density and flavor. When we taste it for the first time, we are transported to an absolutely unexpected twist of the senses. It is neither sweet nor bitter, its texture fills your mouth with a paste filled with unique flavor notes.
- Origin of Fruits: Pineapple from Azores – São Miguel Island in Azores - Portugal, Cherry from Fundão – Fundão - Portugal, Orange from Algarve – Algarve - Portugal, Passion Fruit from Madeira – Madeira Island Portugal, Organic Blueberries and Blackberries – V. N. Famalicão in Northern Portugal.
