Ten things on the shelf

The pantry

Everything here is made from what grows on the plot, in batches, in the month the fruit is ready. Prices are in euros and orders go by email, because there is no shop system on this site.

Ten lines. Some are available most of the year and some exist for a few months. Marmalade is made in January and February from six bitter orange trees and that is the whole year's supply. Honey comes off nine hives once, in June. There was none at all in 2025 and we said so rather than buying any in.

How ordering works

There is no checkout here. Email us what you want, we reply with a total including postage and how to pay, and orders go out on Tuesdays.

Email hello@nossoparaiso.com, or use the contact form, which writes the email for you.

Minimum six jars or bottles, mixed however you like. Mainland Portugal 6.50 euros up to six, mainland EU 18.00. We do not ship outside the EU. Full detail on the questions page.

Every page below lists what is in the jar, what it is good with, how long it keeps and whether we actually have any at the moment.
