And that&#8217;s why we created our km0 shop: a small space, but very carefully curated, where each product has a name, origin and story. No mass production. Nothing without soul. <strong>Just things made with care by real people from the territory that surrounds us.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">If you&#8217;ve enjoyed the Costa Brava that we tried to show you during your stay, here you can take a piece of it with you.

Bas, and jam from Les Eroles by Gl\u00f2ria<\/strong>. Three people who work just a few kilometers from here, each in their own way, each at their own pace, all connected with the same land.<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to see who&#8217;s behind this pack?

He cares for each vine as a living part of the landscape, listening to nature&#8217;s rhythms and intervening only when necessary. His wine is born from this balance: honest, alive, and with a personality that reflects the territory from which it comes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">Vi(o)ritme is not mass-produced wine. It&#8217;s the opposite: a project that values a slow and conscious way of working, so that what reaches your glass is as authentic as its origin.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-45995\" src=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vi-artesanal-castell-daro.webp\" alt=\"vi artesanal castell d'aro\" width=\"380\" height=\"285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vi-artesanal-castell-daro.webp 650w, https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vi-artesanal-castell-daro-600x450.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Honey and Jams from the Vall d\u2019Aro<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">If you&#8217;ve read our article about <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/en\/our-breakfast-has-a-name-km0-producers\/\">the breakfast buffet<\/a> at our Platja d&#8217;Aro hotel<\/strong>, you already know who Josep M.

All handmade, using cutting, polishing, sandblasting and fusion techniques.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">Each piece goes through a manual process that gives glass a new life through design and reuse. The bottles that would have ended up in the recycling bin become objects with aesthetics, utility and a story behind them.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/upcyclingbottles.com\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Upcycling Bottles,<\/span><\/a>\u00a0they believe that sustainability is not just an environmental concept, but must also be understood from cultural, social and economic perspectives.

Each piece is unique, because nature never makes two identical prints.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">That the plants from the garden of our <a href=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/en\/sustainable-hotel\/\">sustainable hotel<\/a>\u00a0end up transformed into a textile that you can take home with you is, we believe, one of the most beautiful cycles we have managed to close.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-45991\" src=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/kaya-botanica.webp\" alt=\"kaya botanica\" width=\"426\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/kaya-botanica.webp 650w, https:\/\/hotelbellrepos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/kaya-botanica-600x450.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Why a km0 Souvenir Shop on the Costa Brava?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\">Because we believe that taking home a memory of a place should make sense.
