CACHAÇA SEPULTURA CARVALHO (BATISTA)

The band Sepultura was founded in 1984 in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. With 36 years on the road and a total of 15 albums recorded, the band has sold more than 20 million records and is the group that has played the most at Rock in Rio. In 2017, the documentary Sepultura Endurance was released, which tells the story of the band, as well as the band members' routines, behind the scenes of recording albums and shows, the process of creating songs and interviews. Cachaça is a symbol of Brazilian culture and the distillery that produces Batista cachaça, in partnership with the band Sepultura, is launching a line of Cachaças de Alambique with the essence of one of the greatest bands in Brazil and the world as inspiration for the creation of the edition. The cachaça promises to delight through its flavor and artisanal quality. Cachaça Sepultura Carvalho 700ml is stored for three years in selected oak barrels with a touch of jequitibá-rosa. With an alcohol content of 40%, it can be enjoyed pure or used to prepare drinks and cocktails. Cachaça Batista was founded by José Batista de Oliveira in 1943, on the Cachoeirinha Farm, in Sacramento, state of Minas Gerais, near the Serra da Canastra National Park. At that time, during the Second World War and the sugar crisis, the producer planted sugarcane called Argentina or Tucumã, to make rapaduras and use as sugar. Later, the producer had the idea of making cachaça and in 1958, he created the brand, at the time Caninha Batista, which gained the famous logo of the star associated with the slogan "Estrela das Gerais", delighting palates until 1974, when its activities were halted. Today, very few bottles from those early days are kept as rare jewels in the collections of a privileged few. Upon turning 90, the owner, Mr. José Batista, confessed to his son-in-law Marco Antonio Afonso da Mota that he wanted to continue his project. Challenge accepted, Marco inherited the secrets and techniques of how to make good cachaça and continues to perpetuate his father-in-law's dream, keeping alive the legend of the drink and its unmatched quality. In 2008, with enthusiasm and a keen entrepreneurial spirit, Marco Antônio and his son, Marco Elísio, built the new Cachaça Batista facilities on the Boa Sorte Farm, reviving a tradition of over 70 years, renewed by modern production techniques. Today, the new factory consolidates its position as a business that honors the brand's tradition and projects a new cycle to remain in a scenario that is openly receptive to Brazilian still cachaça.
