There are moments when we want to try something different, out of the ordinary.
THE GIN Collection
The first day you take a walk in the Douro, you are struck by its beauty and wildness, you can’t be indifferent to it. The smell, the landscapes, the textures all swadle you softly.
The Botanical Infusion Dry Gin Collection is our own interpretation of the landscapes that surround us daily. We kept the infusions simple, aiming for quality and purity. The native juniper (zimbro) takes the lead and is surrounded by the fresh and complex aromas of verbena, mint, rosemary, and a zesty touch of orange or lemon – depending on the blends. The latest member of the collection is the Cask Matured, in which we aged the Dry Gin in old Port casks!
VERMOUTH
Our good friend Ryan Opaz challenged us to bring back one of the most noble (yet forgotten) drinks of our region: The Vermouth.
This result? An exciting collection of sensorial snapshots of the Terroir that surround our vineyards at a specific time of the year: Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer.
In each edition the characteristic smells and flavors of the season are captured into a unique Limited Edition Vermouth.
ORGANIC OLIVE OIL
Our organic olive grove Quinta do Ferrado is located in Valongo dos Azeites (our ancestor ‘s hometown) and comprises around 4.000 olive trees through 25 hectares.
At Quevedo we let our olives grow naturally. We only venture into the olive tree grove three times a year: to prune, cut the grass that the sheep do not eat and harvest. The rest of the time, a multitude of sparrows, ladybirds and sheep flocks take good care of our noble trees..
To bring the best of what nature can offer, this superior category olive oil is extracted at low temperatures to preserve all the olive’s aromas. It has a soft green color and it may develop sediment after several months in bottle as it was very gently filtered.
