A root. A memory. A smile?

What is nostalgia?

Is it a gentle breeze that caresses your cheeks, the intense scent of Za’atar spread on a freshly made dough, those misty mountains that make you hold your breath for a sec, or that rare sight of a strawberry bonjus down at the left corner of a fridge’s shelf?  


Is it what they called the Paris of the Middle East? Or a small thought of paradise, rooted in our memories?


It’s no secret that our beloved country is going through a rough patch, but still, there is much that is fair, beautiful, mysterious, and nostalgic about it. 


It’s something in the air that makes us romanticize the past, reminisce about the old days, and empower us to fight, protect and seek beautiful moments that will last a lifetime.
The Fattoush for some, and Tabbouleh for others, the unparalleled sea views and the hazy mountain backdrops, the bonfires, the walks, the picnics, and late-night talks. 
All ingredients that make up the perfect getaways mixed with a blend of cultures and backgrounds are found within an hour or 2 across our natural Mediterranean landscape that anyone can call “home.”

Now back to the roots
From that unforgettable 80s Werther’s Original commercial to those rich Sunday barbecues coupled with ancient stories, laughter, and a bit of Arak, well, maybe a little more. 
Jedo represents those moments and memories, safely organized in endless family albums, flash drives, or phone galleries. Today, our hearts yearn to make new memories and stories to be shared with generations to come over a bit of Arak.
