Portuguese liqueurs, tradition and modernity

Portuguese liqueurs, tradition and modernity

Portugal has a long tradition of producing liqueurs. From north to south, including the islands, there are liqueurs that deserve your attention and that you probably don't know about yet. That's why today we've decided to suggest some beautiful liqueurs produced in our country.

The Xarão - Companhia Portuguesa de Licores was founded in 1982 as a family business. Today, Xarão is present on almost every continent, working in ten additional markets to its country of origin. With more than 35 years of activity, Xarão is proud to commercialise 42 references including spirits, liqueurs and syrups, and is the market leader in some of them. Among them we can find classics such as the traditional Ginjas or Amêndoa Amarga, our best-sellers when it comes to liqueurs, but also original liqueurs such as Blue Moon or Kizomba, perfect for the most daring cokctails.

And speaking of Ginjas, take a look at the new Oppidum. New in our shop, with discounts of up to 16%. A brand that strives to be the best of the best, famous for its unrivalled quality.

We must also mention Licor Beirão, probably the most famous Portuguese liqueur! With a formula that dates back to the 19th century - when it was produced in a pharmacy in the town of Lousã - Licor Beirão has survived the decades with a popularity that is undeniably linked to its irreverence. 

Take a look at our liqueur section and let yourself be carried away by its infinite variety, or take a look at our suggestions today and treat yourself to a fantastic Portuguese liqueur... Happy tasting!
