Portuguese Flavors Experiences
At meia.dúzia®, we reinvent the way to taste Portugal. Through our innovative tubes, we transform traditional flavors into practical and modern experiences, bringing the best of Portuguese cuisine to everyday life.
The Origin of meia.dúzia®
The name of the brand meia.dúzia® Sabores de Portugal emerged on an inspiring visit to the convent of Tibães, in Braga, Portugal. During an exploration in the Monastery's library, after intense research into old and convent recipes for typically Portuguese products, the idea came to life. The term Half Dozen, widely used in traditional recipes, proved to be the perfect name to capture the essence of our mission: to provide authentic and memorable flavor experiences.
The first half-dúzia® product was a pack. with six (half a dozen) traditional flavors of Portugal, each representing a part of the country's rich gastronomic heritage. This initial concept reflected our vision of sharing the best that Portugal has to offer in terms of flavors, in an accessible and innovative way.
The brand's first product was a pack with half a dozen traditional Portuguese flavors, packaged in tubes, which immediately won over for their originality and practicality. This unusual and creative format not only preserves the authenticity of the flavors, but also offers a unique and convenient way to enjoy Portuguese delicacies.
The Brand Philosophy
At meia.dúzia®, we believe that food is a form of cultural expression and a way to connect people. Therefore, we focus on creating products that not only respect tradition, but also innovate and surprise. Our philosophy is based on three fundamental pillars:
- Authenticity: We use natural ingredients, coming from local producers, ensuring that each flavor reflects the true essence of Portuguese cuisine.< /li>
- Innovation: The presentation of our products in tubes is an example of our innovative approach. This format not only preserves the flavors, but also makes it easier to use, making the tasting experience more convenient and fun.
- Sustainability: We are committed to sustainable practices throughout production chain. From choosing ingredients to the packaging process, we seek to minimize environmental impact and support local development.
The Tube
The great innovation of meia.dúzia® is in the tubes. Inspired by the tubes of paint used by artists, the tubes transform the tasting experience, making it fun, practical and accessible. This format allows flavors to be easily transported, preserved and used anywhere, creatively and without waste.

Diversity of Portuguese Flavors in Exclusive Packs
Our tasting packages are the heart of the brand. Each pack contains a selection of three or six different flavors, which represent the best of Portuguese cuisine. These flavors are carefully chosen to create a balanced and complete experience.
With the aim of promoting the cultural and gastronomic richness of Portugal, we developed packs that represent different regions of the country. Each pack is a tribute to the typical flavors of these regions, reflecting the diversity and authenticity of Portuguese cuisine, such as PACK Algarve, with flavors that capture the essence of the south, such as fig, almond and orange, offering an experience reminiscent of the sun and to the sea in the region, or the Madeira Pack, inspired by the exotic flavors of the island, with emphasis on banana, passion fruit and pine cone, which bring a tropical touch.
In addition to the regional packs, we also have experience packs, with a selection of flavors ideal for Cheese, Meat, Sushi, etc.
Thematic packs explore different aspects of Portuguese gastronomy, from jams to chocolates, including honeys and liqueurs.
Each pack is a new discovery, a way of traveling through Portugal through its flavors.
