Where Walnut Meets Aniseed - an Aromatic Recipe

Some recipes need no explanation - they just ask to be tasted. Geocakes Walnut Broas reach your table with the finest walnuts and the gentle aroma of aniseed, hand-shaped in Idanha-a-Nova following sweet-making know-how Beira Baixa has kept for generations.

Geocakes Walnut Broas are born from two ingredients the region knows well: walnut, grown inland with an intensity only Beira Baixa's climate produces, and aniseed, which balances and perfumes without overpowering. The recipe belongs to Idanha-a-Nova's sweet-making tradition - a town at the heart of the Naturtejo Geopark, the first Portuguese geopark recognised by UNESCO.

Each broa is hand-shaped by Chef Raquel, who has preserved and passed on regional pastry-making know-how for over 20 years. There are no shortcuts in this process: the dough is worked for as long as it deserves, ingredients are selected from local producers, and the result is that slightly buttery firmness that defines Beira tradition's walnut broas.

With the GeoFood Seal from the Naturtejo Geopark (UNESCO)

Geocakes Walnut Broas carry the GeoFood Seal, awarded by the Naturtejo Geopark - a UNESCO network - to products that authentically represent the territory. A recognition that confirms what's already proven: these sweets have always existed in this land, made with its ingredients and its know-how.

A Living Fossil from the Naturtejo Geopark, in Wood

This handcrafted magnet represents the Penha Garcia trilobites, extinct marine arthropods that populated the Palaeozoic seas millions of years ago. Handmade by Geocakes, it turns one of Beira Baixa's most recognised geological traces into a small decorative piece that can accompany you every day, on the fridge or a noticeboard.

Penha Garcia and Beira Baixa's Heritage

Overlooking the River Ponsul, in Idanha-a-Nova, Penha Garcia is one of Portugal's landmark palaeontology sites. Its rocks have kept, for generations, the traces of trilobites that lived there long before any life existed on dry land. This heritage was decisive in making the Naturtejo Geopark the first Portuguese geopark classified by UNESCO, and it's this story that Geocakes seeks to honour in every piece of craftwork it produces.

Handmade in Beira Baixa

Each magnet is handcrafted in wood, with a magnet applied to the back. Being a handmade piece, small variations in the grain and tone of the wood are natural and part of each piece's character: no two pieces come out exactly alike.

Why This Magnet Is Worth Having

• Represents one of Penha Garcia's most emblematic fossils
• A handcrafted piece, made by hand in Beira Baixa
• Links you to the geological heritage of the Naturtejo Geopark, Portugal's first UNESCO geopark
• Supports local production and the region's craftspeople
• A good keepsake for anyone who has visited the territory or is interested in geology

Some rosés surprise you. This one from Quinta dos Termos is one of them. The combination of Syrah and Baga, two grape varieties with distinct personalities, results in a wine with real character: aromatic, fresh and with a vibrant acidity that makes it a versatile, memorable food partner.

Syrah and Baga: an Unlikely Meeting, a Unique Result

Syrah brings structure and aromatic exoticism, notes usually associated with warm-climate reds. Baga answers with the lively acidity and freshness that characterise this traditional Portuguese variety. Together, they create a dry rosé with layers and personality, well beyond an everyday rosé. Full ageing in stainless steel tanks preserves varietal purity and territorial expression with no interference from wood.

What You'll Find in the Glass

An intense rosé colour, hints that hint at the complexity to come. On the nose, fresh red fruit with floral notes and an exotic touch from the Syrah. On the palate, Baga's acidity gives it liveliness and length, with a dry, fresh, appetising finish. A rosé that invites a second glass.

Territory and Production

Produced at Quinta dos Termos, at the heart of Beira Baixa, this DOC rosé is certified under Integrated Production by Sativa. A commitment to sustainability that respects the local ecosystem and values the native resources of Beira Interior.
