You can’t take Portugal back home with you. But we can do it for you.

That’s why we work with special, unique producers to ship little pieces (or big boxes) of Portugal right to your doorstep. 

Portuguese heart and soul: shipped.

You know all the things that you loved about Portugal? That back-alley charm, the foggy morning mystery and the flavors that only sunlight, salt and smoke can create? That’s what we fell in love with, too.

And it’s what we’re trying to ship – the local stories!

Get your own beautiful box of products. We’ve got a collection for everyone - and a number of products just for you.

You can’t find these things at the airport

Each bottle of wine, olive oil, natural soap, box of tea, or bag of coffee comes from small, local producers or family-owned businesses.

People who we know. 

And who, we know, will love the idea of you enjoying the art of their craft wherever you call home.

Listen: we like duty-free Port as much as anybody else, but this isn’t mass-produced stuff we’re working with.

This isn’t your everyday pastel de nata: you won’t find these products in the airport. You won’t find these products back home either.

These are artisanal products from all the different regions of Portugal. Each one of them tells a story.

And only you know where that story goes next. 

Pre-bundled and ready to post

Still thinking about that special something you saw in Porto that you should’ve, could’ve, but didn’t buy?

Don’t worry about it. 

Life’s too short for regrets and Porto’s too small a town.

Tell us what it was and where you saw it.

We’ll pick it up, pack it with other items of your choice (or in one of our boxes), and deliver all that straight to your door.

Just email us at meet@thelocalstory.eu
