Our Cachaça
Maracatu Cachaça is hand crafted in small batches in a boutique distillery based on century old techniques in a copper pot still.
The distillery is located in the Paraty region of Brazil which is known to produce the best cachaça in the world.
Maracatu Cachaça - The true flavour of Brazilian Cachaça!
From the hilltop into your bottle
Our sugar cane is grown on the hills surrounding the estate of our distillery.
After the cane is cut by hand, it is milled immediately into sugar cane juice which is then fermented.
Our single distillation process is meticulously watched by our master distiller who will separate the
non-drinkable parts of the spirit from the so called heart. The heart is the best of the distilling process and
only the heart is used for Maracatu Cachaça to ensure a headache-free drinking experience.
Maracatu Cachaça is rested in stainless steel barrels for two months before it is bottled.
No additives like sugar or caramel are added to our cachaça. This ensures that Maracatu Cachaça's taste is not altered
in any way and reflects the most pure and authentic form of cachaça making.
For bottling the distillate is then standardized with freshest mountain mineral water from a well within
the premises of the distillery. Maracatu Cachaça now has 38% volume alcohol and is ready for you to try.
We produce only a limited number of 10,000 bottles per year to ensure the highest possible quality.
When you open your bottle of Maracatu Cachaça you can taste and smell the fresh sugar cane juice that went into it.
Enjoy this outstanding spirit of Brazil!

All this talk about cachaça, What is it actually?
Cachaça is Brazil’s national spirit. It is one of the world’s largest spirits categories with a total production of 1.2 billion litres per annum.
Only 1% of this is exported from Brazil.
How is it different from rum? Rum is mostly made from fermented sugar molasses, a by-product of the sugar production.
Cachaça on the other hand is distilled from fermented fresh sugar cane juice and can only be called cachaça if it is produced in Brazil.
