  • Abelha Cachaca
  • Silver
  • Gold

Abelha Organic Cachaca was created from a simple idea: use the best possible all-natural ingredients and the most traditional artisan methods of production.

The cane is grown 100% organically in the beautiful protected national park of Chapada Diamantina in Bahia, Northern Brazil, where the high, dry climate and sandy soils yield excellent cane for making cachaca.

The team at Abelha believe that quality and soul come from doing as much as possible in the traditional way, by hand, in small batches. They distil in a traditional copper pot still with a capacity of only 400 litres and all processes are carefully monitored by experienced eyes (and noses!). The result is a full-flavoured artisanal cachaca, with an intense fruity nose, fresh sugar cane taste and very smooth finish.

Abelha is also produced ethically. The company work in fair partnership with small holding farmers, teaching them organic farming and paying them a good price for their cane.

Abelha Organic Cachaça is made in the highlands of Bahia where locally grown organic sugar cane is fermented with natural yeast and distilled in small copper pots, or alambiques. This gives Abelha a characteristic aromatic nose. It is produced in an ultra traditional manner, with everything being done carefully, by hand, in a lengthy production process which results in a remarkable fullness of flavour. The mouth-feel is unctuous and creamy with an underlying fruitiness and an ethereal complexity.

Premium Organic Cachaça

Abelha Cachaca Silver Organic 39%

Abelha Cachaça is a full-flavored artisanal cachaca from Rio de Contas, a spiritual & timeless town in Bahia - Brazil, near the Chapada Diamantina national park. Marcos Vaccaro and a collective of farmers grow beautifully sweet organic sugarcane, which is fermented then distilled to produce an intense & aromatic nose of fresh sugar cane & stone fruits with a smooth dry finish. Abelha means Bee in Portuguese and much like in a beehive hard work and dedication are needed to produce a delicious and unique cachaça.

Abelha Organic Cachaça
Hails from Rio de Contas, a beautiful old mining town that sits amongst the hills and valleys of the southern Chapada Diamantina. Marco Vaccaro, a visionary, co-ordinates the Abelha Cachaça productions and is a recognized expert on organic agriculture in Brazil.

The fazenda (farm) picturesquely situated at 1200m above seal level and attracts many local tourists for it’s gorgeous water falls, fruit forests, alternative accommodations and of course the cachaça!

Due to the temperature differential between day and night at this altitude, the organic sugar cane retains sugar and it’s organoleptic properties, which make it perfect for the production of artisanal cachaça.

Following fermentation, the vinho or cachaça wine is distilled in a traditional copper-pot still known as an alambique with a small 400-liter capacity. Natural aquifers provide diamond-filtered water to slightly dilute the pure cachaça.

Following the carefully controlled production Marco allows the cachaça to rest for 6 months for Abehla Silver and 3 years in garapeira wood barrels for Abelha Gold. During this time natural occurring phenols are formed which give Abelha cachaca it’s award winning characteristic bouquet. Cheers!
