Novo Fogo Organic Aged Cachaça in a Nutshell

Novo Fogo Organic Aged Cachaça isn't your typical rum; it's crafted from fresh, organic sugarcane juice in Brazil's rainforest, then aged in re-toasted American oak barrels. This process develops unique banana bread, toffee, and subtle coffee notes, distinguishing it from molasses-based spirits and offering a delicious glimpse into its rainforest origins.

Anders' Take on Novo Fogo Organic Aged Cachaça

"Novo Fogo's aged cachaça has a wonderful grassy, funky character from the fresh cane, beautifully softened by the oak. Mixes well in a number of cocktails, but drinks well sipped neat. A standout in the category."
