Discover a treasured Portuguese delicacy with Convento da Serra Ameixas d’Elvas DOP - Preserved Green Gage Plums. Known locally as Abrunho, these Green Gage plums from the Elvas region of Portugal are traditionally preserved to develop a rich sweetness, succulent texture, and distinctive flavor.
Recognized with DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) status, Ameixas d’Elvas have been celebrated for centuries. Their fame spread well beyond Portugal, becoming particularly prized in Great Britain and reportedly enjoyed by Lord Wellington during his time in Portugal. The Elvas Plum earned a bronze medal at the 1855 Paris Exhibition, began exports to America in 1875, and went on to receive more than 200 national and international awards.
Enjoy them straight from the box, pair with cheese, or serve alongside desserts for a uniquely Portuguese treat.
Sun exposure should be avoided, and they should be stored in a cool, dry place.
