Distiller Notes
To mature the Colibri expression (“hummingbird” in Portuguese), we moved the cachaça back and forth over the years between repurposed oak barrels and amburana (Brazilian teak) barrels. The predominant spices of vanilla and toffee (from the oak) and cinnamon and chestnuts (from the teak) come together in a balanced expression that also includes tropical fruit such as banana and passionfruit but finishes playfully with notes of snickerdoodle.
Proof: 84
Novo Fogo distillery is located at the intersection of mountains, rainforest, and ocean in the town of Morretes, state of Paraná, in the Brazilian South. With the jungle trees only feet away from our sugarcane, we are true stewards of one of our planet’s last frontiers: the Atlantic Rainforest, home to 11,000 species of endangered plants and animals.
<p>We are committed to maintaining the identity of our clean, healthy sugarcane when we distill it into cachaça. We process it minimally, according to traditional methods and using human hands, in tiny batches (130 liters each), and we use no chemicals to grow our cane (hence the USDA organic certification). In the end, you should be able to taste the rainforest in our cachaças.
