The brand

The fruits of the fenua,
in a jar.

100% plant-based spreads celebrating the fruits of the fenua, notably taro, uru (breadfruit) and umara (sweet potatoes). An artisanal, local product with zero cold-chain hassle. Logo elevated by genuine Polynesian tattoos, signed Eli M Tattoo in Tahiti.

Who I am

Ia ora na, I'm Louis.

My partner and I have been vegetarian for a few years now. Over time, this way of eating made us curious: attentive to what grows near us, to the fruits of the fenua, and to every plant-based alternative we could imagine with them.

Le Pot'lynésien was born from that curiosity. I love testing new blends, pairing flavours, chasing the combination that surprises. And behind every jar there is a simple wish: to celebrate local produce, give it a place in our cupboards, and show that plant-based food belongs in the cuisine of these islands.

I cook in small batches, by hand, here in Tahiti. Every jar carries a batch number and a great deal of care. If you see me at a market, come and taste: that's how it all starts.

Three archipelagos, three recipes

Our spreads

Les Australes spread, taro, carrots and ginger, resting in a taro field

Les Australes

taro · carrots · ginger

The sweetness of taro and the roundness of carrot, balanced by the zing of fresh ginger. A spread deeply rooted in the Austral Islands.

MellowSpiced

Les Tuamotu spread, uru, coconut and combava, resting on the white coral of an atoll

Les Tuamotu

uru · coconut · combava

Uru (breadfruit) in perfect harmony with fresh coconut, lifted by the scent of combava. All the richness of the atolls.

TangyFresh

Les Marquises spread, umara, turmeric, ginger and chilli, on mossy rock

Les Marquises

umara · turmeric · ginger · chilli

The sweetness of umara (sweet potatoes), lifted by turmeric, ginger and fresh chilli, revealing all the power of the Marquesas. A spread that awakens the senses.

July 2026

Le Pot'lynésien has launched!

More archipelagos, more fruits of the fenua: the range will grow. Scan the QR code on your jar or follow us to discover them first.

Zero waste

Give your jar
a second life

Your jar is glass, and it still has plenty to give:

  • Bring it back: return your clean jars at our stand or on delivery, and we sterilise and reuse them.
  • Reuse it: spice jar, homemade vanilla or monoï, jam, apéro verrine, tealight holder, a little vase for a tiare flower...
  • Recycle it: otherwise, glass goes in the glass bank and the cap in recycling.

Every jar reused is one that won't be made or thrown away. Māuruuru!

Frequently asked questions

Good to know before you taste

How long do the spreads keep?

Our spreads are sterilised in an autoclave: unopened, they keep at room temperature, away from heat and humidity, until the best-before date printed on the jar. Once opened, refrigerate and eat within three days.

Can I take them on a plane?

Yes, they make the perfect gourmet souvenir. Pack your jars in your checked luggage (containers over 100 ml are refused at cabin security). The sterilised product travels perfectly, no refrigeration needed.

Are the spreads vegan?

Yes, all three recipes are 100% plant-based, with no ingredient of animal origin. They do contain two allergens: soy and wheat (gluten), from the soy sauce and the flour.

How do I order and collect?

Direct sales (the order module on this page) cover Tahiti and Moorea: pick-up by appointment or delivery. Everywhere else in French Polynesia, find our spreads in the partner shops on the map, and at markets. For an island with no outlet yet, write to us: we look at every request.

How should I enjoy a Le Pot'lynésien spread?

Spread on fresh or toasted bread as an appetiser, or serve chilled as a side. Slightly cool is when the flavours shine.

I run a shop, can I stock your spreads?

We work on risk-free consignment (you only pay for what sells), available across French Polynesia up to 18 jars per outlet, or outright purchase beyond that. Contact us via WhatsApp or email through the Retailers section above: we'll come and meet you with a tasting.
