Description

The history of Sete Engenhos Cachaça from Engenho São Miguel, where it is produced, is deep connected with the history of Brazil. It combines more than 400 years of experience in sugar cane cultivation with sustainable production. 450 years ago, the ancestors of the founder of “Engenho São Miguel”, Haroldo Carneiro, took part in the founding of the city of Rio de Janeiro together with Estácio de Sá. Soon afterwards, they began producing sugar cane and cachaça on the Ilha dos Sete Engenhos, today known as “Ilha do Governador”.

Sete Engenhos is a masterpiece of the Brazilian art of distillation. It is made from fresh sugar cane juice. It is distilled in a copper potstil, were heads and tails of the distillation are discarded. Only the heart of the distillation will be used further. It is then aged for 1 year in cerejeira, which gives it a unique and aromatic taste. The bottle with its orange label and the picture of the sugar cane farm where it is produced in the background is an eye-catcher and invites you to enjoy this drop of sunshine. Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks or as an ingredient in refreshing cocktails, this cachaça is a must for connoisseurs and beginners alike. Let yourself be enchanted by the authentic flavors of Brazil.
