Alcobaça - Doces Licores: Celebrating the Tradition of Conventual Sweets and Liqueurs
Alcobaça is proud to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the International Conventual Sweets & Liqueurs Exhibition. This event pays homage to the tradition and conventual legacy that originated from the Monasteries of Alcobaça and Coz. Since its inception in 1999, the exhibition has been a pioneer in Portugal, promoting the ancestral art of gastronomy.
With over two decades of success, the exhibition brings together participants who have been carefully selected for their knowledge, experience, and commitment to excellence. Visitors can indulge in more than 300 varieties of sweets and liqueurs, each representing a unique flavor and craftsmanship.
Alcobaça has become renowned for its Conventual Sweets and Liqueurs, establishing itself as a prominent brand in the national scene. The exhibition showcases the philosophy and work of the Cistercian monks who administered these lands from the 12th to the 19th century, imprinting a sense of identity, belonging, dedication, knowledge, and innovation.
Witnessing this ancient art being passed down from generation to generation is truly inspiring. The participating homes not only connect us to the past but also celebrate the present and inspire the future. This edition of the exhibition aims to honor the participating houses, particularly those that have won first prizes for their exceptional sweets and liqueurs in recent editions.
As part of the historic celebration, visitors are invited to vote for the best sweet and the best liqueur, actively engaging them in the gastronomic experience. Join us in celebrating the true passion for gastronomy and indulge in the rich heritage of Alcobaça's Conventual Sweets and Liqueurs.
