The cane is cut manually, without burning the leaves. After cutting, the cane is cleaned and chopped in the cane field itself, going to the mill, where the grinding takes place, which is always done on the same day as the cut. Arriving at the mill, the sugarcane juice (garapa) is extracted, where they are made, decanted and filtered. The broth with the appropriate “brix” (sweetness) goes to the fermentation vats, where it is fermented by selected yeasts, which convert the sugar into alcohol. The stills are made of copper and the distillation is fractional, that is, only the “heart”, that is the best part of the must, is used in an artisanal process, which ensures the quality of the product. Part of the production is stored in different types of wooden barrels: oak, balsam, amburana, so that it has a period of rest (ageing). And the other part rested in stainless steel vats.
