CACHAÇA RIO DO ENGENHO BLEND 3 MADEIRAS

Based in Ilhéus, in the south of Bahia, Cachaça Rio do Engenho has its origins in the region of land that was once home to the first sugar cane mill in Brazil. The sugarcane that flourished there in 1537 for the manufacture of sugar, ceased to exist along with the mill, which became ruins. However, planting was resumed in 2005, with a new structure and a new purpose: to transform the fermented sugarcane juice into a genuinely Brazilian distillate. The owners came from Campinas, in the interior of São Paulo, to Ilhéus in search of quality of life. Farms, plantations and cachaça were things that had never been part of their daily lives. Graduated in Chemistry and Computer Science, Luiz Fernando Galletti participated, in 2004, in the master still course held by the Technology Center in Cachaça (CTC). Initially, the idea was to produce a drink for friends, as a hobby, but the business took on different proportions and became professional. Cachaça Rio Do Engenho Blend 3 Woods 500ml is a unique blend of three woods. With 38% alcohol content, the drink is aged for two years in American Oak, Louro Canela and Balsam barrels.
