Abelha Organic Cachaca is from Rio de Contas, a beautiful old mining town which sits amongst the hills and valleys of the Southern Chapada Diamantina, Brazil.
The plantations are located at 1200m, with beautiful waterfall pools and fruit forests. At this high altitude, the organic sugar cane retains sugar and is perfect for cachaca production.
After fermentation, the vinho or Cachaca wine, is distilled in a traditional copper-pot known as an Alambique. Natural aquifers provide the diamond filtered water for distillation. |
