The packaging shows us a Rooster from Barcelos, an emblematic figure of Portuguese identity. More than an image, the Rooster is a symbol of good and comes from a centuries-old legend.. It tells the story of a man condemned to the gallows, who was miraculously saved by a rooster that crowed after his death to prove his innocence.. This Rooster would be remembered until today as the Rooster of Barcelos, the Portuguese city where the legend would have taken place. Ceramics is the most natural art form for its representation, and it is increasingly asserting itself as a tourist insignia and one of the main souvenirs of Portugal.
