Broas & Companhia: The Flavour of the Mountains and Art in Souto Redondo

In the serene village of Souto Redondo, nestled on the majestic slopes of the Serra da Freita, Broas & Companhia offers an experience that goes beyond the palate. Led by Vítor and Cláudia, this project is an invitation to immerse yourself in authentic flavours and local traditions. Broas & Companhia’s uniqueness lies in its commitment to the land. Vítor and Cláudia cultivate their own fields from which they harvest the fresh and essential ingredients for their famous pumpkin, chestnut and carrot broas. It is this direct link to the source that guarantees freshness and authentic flavour, transporting those who taste them to the heart of the Serra da Freita. But Vítor’s passion extends beyond farming and baking. He also spends part of his free time creating small wooden utensils and toys, pieces that were once used by the region’s children. This manual art adds a layer of nostalgia and authenticity to the project, connecting visitors not only with the flavours, but also with the village’s cultural heritage. By appointment, visitors have the unique opportunity to participate in some of the agricultural tasks. This interaction is an exceptional way to connect with the land, learn about the production cycles and understand the passion and hard work that Vítor and Cláudia put into each broa. Broas & Companhia is therefore an unmissable destination for anyone looking for an authentic experience, who values the products of the land, local art and wants to immerse themselves in the rich traditions of Souto Redondo.
