Colibri Cachaça

Cachaça (kah-SHA-sah) is Brazil’s national spirit made from fresh-pressed sugarcane juice. Novo Fogo Organic Colibri Cachaça is pot-distilled from estate sugarcane and aged in American oak and Brazilian teak at our zero-waste distillery in Brazil's Atlantic Rainforest. 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 flirts with banana and passion fruit and finishes playfully with notes of snickerdoodle.
