The adult aperitif inspired
by our Mediterranean heritage

A word from the founders

Roxane, originally from Lebanon, and Célia, from the south of France - we share a common memory: large family meals, long summer evenings, Mediterranean generosity where we laugh, exchange and share.

In our thirties, our lifestyle choices led us to drink less and to create Douze, a French company specializing in aperitifs without alcohol or added sugar, with the ambition of reinventing conviviality and offering everyone the opportunity to toast excess-free and with clearer tomorrows.

A new mood-boosting ritual that strengthens the body and awakens the mind.

Douze creates apéritifs inspired by the Mediterranean, where good living and well-being blend harmoniously.

The Mediterranean lifestyle is rich in fulfillment, sharing, and hedonistic, optimistic and carefree moments, alone or together.

Let yourself be transported back to those memories of warmth, euphoria, and celebration.

Put life on ice.

The symbolism of Douze

12 evokes time, the moment, sharing.

A generous number reminiscent of the large tables and half-dozens of good things bought at the market in the Mediterranean.

"12" follows in the tradition of emblematic numbers in the world of alcoholic beverages – from numbered vintages to the totem numbers of renowned brands. We reinvent this symbolism to celebrate modern, solar, and alcohol-free conviviality.

Since ancient times, 12 has been a “perfect” number: it embodies balance and cyclical harmony.

12 hours mark the rhythm of day and night, 12 months define the seasons, 12 signs structure the zodiac.

Marcel, our emblem

Marcel is a MEDITERRANEAN lucky charm, a promise of well-being AND JOY.

We created it for its symbolism of protection and luck and because it can be seen basking at any time of day in the Mediterranean.
