In every dish we serve at El Celler del Nou Priorat there is more than just flavour. There is history, identity and an invisible link with those who work the land, the sea and the kitchen. Local Products not only bring freshness, but also an emotional connection with the territory, with the hands that cultivate, collect and transform what will later become a gastronomic experience.
The Catalan and Mediterranean cuisine that we celebrate here is born from respect for those origins. That’s why, every time we prepare a menu, we ask ourselves: where does this product come from? Who has grown it? What is the story behind its aroma, its texture, its colour?
The answers to these questions are precisely what gives meaning to our way of cooking.
To talk about Local Products is to talk about trust. From producers we know by name, from orchards we visit in season, from farms that breed respecting natural cycles.
This proximity allows us to keep the essence of local cuisine alive and work with ingredients that reach our kitchen at their optimum point, without long journeys or intermediaries.
This philosophy is at the heart of the slow food movement, which inspires our daily lives: cooking with conscience, honoring authentic flavors and respecting the environment. In each dish, the product dictates the recipe. We do not force nature; we hear it.
Every product has a story, and every story deserves to be told.
Behind our seasonal vegetables there are families who have been taking care of the same land for generations. Behind our oils, artisans who know the secret of each olive. Behind our wines, vineyards that mature with the patience of the Mediterranean sun.
These stories are part of our identity. We not only choose Local Products for their quality or freshness, but for what they represent: commitment, respect and continuity. They are stories that are transmitted in each bite, that transform a meal into a story shared between those who produce and those who enjoy.
At El Celler del Nou Priorat, we believe that when you know the origin of what you eat, you taste it in a different way. Conscious. Real.
Local foods reach the kitchen without traveling long distances, preserving their properties, aromas and textures intact. The result is a purer and more vivid sensory experience.
Every purchase boosts farmers, ranchers, fishermen and artisans in our area. Betting on Local Products means strengthening the local economy and keeping traditions alive.
Reducing the distance between production and consumption decreases the carbon footprint. Less transport, less packaging, less waste. A more responsible cuisine with the planet.
Local products allow us to maintain the authenticity of Catalan and Mediterranean cuisine. Each ingredient speaks of our landscape, our climate, our roots.
In our cuisine, the choice begins at the source. We look for ingredients grown or made a few kilometres from our restaurant, with environmentally friendly practices and without aggressive industrial processes.
We observe the seasonality, the freshness, the history of the producer and his way of working. Thus, each dish reflects not only the quality of the product, but also the honesty of the path it has taken to reach your table.
Because we believe that gastronomy is not just about combining flavors, but about honoring the process that makes them possible.
El Celler del Nou Priorat, locally sourced products are not a resource, but a way to celebrate who we are. Each season marks a new opportunity to rediscover the territory: the sweetness of tomatoes in summer, the intensity of mushrooms in autumn, the freshness of citrus fruits in winter.
Harvests with their own name, stories that cross generations and hands that continue to cultivate with love. That is the essence we want to convey in each dish: a living connection with the environment that surrounds us and with the people who make it possible.
Come and discover how each local ingredient can tell a different story, full of identity, flavor and awareness.
Because when you choose Local Products, you choose much more than a food: you choose to be part of a chain of respect, authenticity and life.
Book your table and discover what it really means to live the experience of a slow food restaurant.
