Mondega Gourmet: Crafting Artisanal Hot Sauces
Mondega Gourmet was born from a passion for creating exceptional gastronomic products that embody generosity and Portuguese authenticity. After six years of dedication, the brand introduced its Natural Spicy Sauce, made from African Bird’s Eye chili peppers (Capsicum frutescens) cultivated in various African countries. These peppers are carefully selected by local communities practicing sustainable agriculture, ensuring quality and environmental responsibility.
The sauce is handcrafted in Portugal using a traditional recipe and natural ingredients, including sunflower and soy oils, garlic, lemon, and mango. After a meticulous three-year maceration process, the result is a unique, clear, and smooth hot sauce presented in exclusive packaging with a dropper for precise application.

At Salone del Mobile 2025, the brand unveiled a collection that showcased its signature blend of traditional techniques and contemporary aesthetics. Their pieces, characterized by bold forms and exquisite materials, captivated attendees and reaffirmed their position at the forefront of luxury interior design.
