Novo Fogo Barrel-Aged Cachaca captures the warmth of the Brazilian rainforest in a bottle. This organic spirit begins with pure sugarcane grown at the foot of Marumbi Mountain. The production is a labor of love that prioritizes the environment. A dedicated field team harvests the cane by hand to avoid using heavy machinery. The juice is pressed immediately and flows through the zero-waste distillery using gravity, ensuring the liquid remains pristine.
The character of this spirit comes from its time in wood. The distillers use 53-gallon American oak barrels that have been disassembled, sanded, and re-toasted. This unique process allows the wood to impart deep, rich flavors without overwhelming the cane. The intense heat and humidity of the jungle accelerate the interaction between the spirit and the barrel.
On the palate, this cachaca is inviting and complex. The fresh fruit aroma found in the silver expression transforms into the taste of warm banana bread. You will detect layers of chocolate and coffee that add depth to the sip. Notes of cinnamon bark and black pepper provide a gentle spice on the finish. It is an exceptional choice for sipping neat or mixing into a rich cocktail.
