The cachaça is a traditional Brazilian spirit made from the fermentation and distillation of sugarcane juice. Crafted for over 400 years, it is the primary ingredient in Caipirinha, the country's iconic cocktail. As such, it's essential to select an authentic and high-quality cachaça to embody the spirit of Brazil in your beverages. The Novo Fogo brand is among those that offer this unique experience.

Novo Fogo: The Distillery at the Heart of the Atlantic Forest

Located in Morretes, in the Paraná region, the Novo Fogo distillery produces organic cachaças, honoring both the environment and local traditions. The brand's name means "new fire" in Portuguese, symbolizing both the ancient technique of gentle fire distillation and the idea of a rebirth, tailored to the current needs of nature preservation and sustainable development.

The Novo Fogo journey began in 2009 when its founders passionately discovered the unique terroir of this region of Brazil and the artisanal methods of cachaça production. They decided to establish their distillery in this exceptional setting, consisting of lush mountains and a tropical forest with remarkable biodiversity.

An Organic and Eco-Responsible Production

The Novo Fogo distillery commits to an organic and eco-responsible approach, emphasizing the respect for the environment, traditions, and individuals involved in the production process.

  • Sugarcane: It's grown without pesticides or herbicides, using only natural organic fertilizers. The sugarcane is hand-harvested to prevent soil damage and quickly crushed to preserve its fresh and complex aromas.
  • Water: The distillery uses spring water directly from the Atlantic forest, pure and crystalline, allowing optimal fermentation of the sugarcane juice.
  • Distillation: Novo Fogo opts for traditional copper pot stills heated with a gentle flame, promoting the extraction of the best aromas while minimizing the use of fossil energy.
  • Aging: Cachaças are aged in American or Brazilian oak barrels, depending on the variety, introducing subtle notes of vanilla and wood to the spirits. The barrels are repurposed and reused to reduce waste and the brand's ecological footprint.
  • Social economy: Novo Fogo focuses on local production and supports Paraná artisans, employing regional master distillers and workers. Training on modern and traditional techniques is regularly offered to collaborators, promoting skill development and local economy growth.
