Tasting notes

Nose: Fresh, floral aromas of ripe batâñas and rainforest , with delicate touches of fresh sugar cane and a subtle hint of coriander .

Pairings and tasting moments

Perfect as a neat cachaça to appreciate its vegetal freshness, or served slightly chilled as an aperitif with a thin slice of lime. Pairs wonderfully with a fish ceviche enhanced with fresh coriander and sweet chili, and also pairs well with a green mango salad to highlight its floral and slightly salty notes. For a refreshing cocktail, mix 5 cl of Novo Fogo Silver, 1 cl of cane sugar syrup, 2 cl of fresh lime juice, a few mint leaves and ice cubes: a revisited Caipirinha with tropical accents.

Product History

Novo Fogo Silver is an organic, unaged cachaça, a pure reflection of the Brazilian terroir and the expertise of the Pico do Marumbi distillery. Located at the foot of the Serra do Mar mountains in the state of Paraná, this distillery cultivates its sugarcane in the Atlantic rainforest, taking advantage of a warm and humid climate ideal for enriching the cane's aromas. Harvested by hand, the cane is instantly pressed to preserve its maximum natural sugar content. The resulting juice ferments in vats made of local wood, where indigenous yeasts develop floral and fruity aromas typical of the terroir. Distillation then takes place in copper stills, guaranteeing unprecedented aromatic purity. Immediately bottled after distillation, the cachaça remains "silver", without passing through barrels, thus revealing the freshness and vegetal complexity of the distillate. This expression embodies Novo Fogo's philosophy: to offer a cachaça where the tropical climate, organic farming and artisanal precision combine to offer an authentic sensory experience.

The brand

Novo Fogo was born from a passion for premium organic cachaça, born in the south of Brazil, at the Pico do Marumbi distillery. Driven by a sustainable vision, the brand produces all its cachaças from sugarcane grown without pesticides or herbicides, in plots nestled in the heart of the Atlantic rainforest . The distillery blends Brazilian artisanal traditions with modern controls to ensure a range of exceptional cachaças, from the unaged expression (Silver) to editions aged in ex-bourbon barrels (Barrel Aged). Each batch is tracked with traceability, guaranteeing absolute respect for the terroir and the environment. The result: refined spirits, imbued with authenticity, recognized on the international scene.

About the distillery

Pico do Marumbi Distillery , located at the foot of the majestic Serra do Mar Mountains in the state of Paraná, embodies the essence of Brazilian craftsmanship. Founded on a former coffee farm, it has evolved to become the birthplace of the Novo Fogo brand, dedicated to the production of organic cachaças. Located in a humid tropical environment, the distillery benefits from direct access to the rainfall and biodiversity of the Atlantic Forest, promoting agriculture that respects the ecosystem.

The process begins with the cultivation of organic sugarcane without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Local farmers manually harvest the stalks at their peak of maturity, ensuring an optimal concentration of fermentable sugars. The resulting juice is fermented in vats made of local wood, where indigenous yeasts trigger a controlled fermentation process, preserving the cane's natural aromas. Distillation takes place in traditional copper stills, allowing for refined purification before bottling.

For Silver cachaça, no aging step is applied, thus preserving the freshness and vegetal complexity of the distillate. The vintages intended for aging (Barrel Aged) are placed in ex-bourbon American oak barrels , where the tropical climate accelerates the exchanges between the wood and the cachaça. This interaction creates spirits with rich notes of banana bread , chocolate , cinnamon and roasted coffee , enriched with a subtle salinity reminiscent of the surrounding forest.

Committed to an eco-responsible approach, Pico do Marumbi focuses on plot rotation, minimal soil tillage and composting bagasse residues to preserve the fertility of production sites. Each bottle of Novo Fogo cachaça reflects this sustainable philosophy: complete traceability, authentic flavors and respect for the terroir. The distillery also offers immersive tours, inviting visitors to discover cane cultivation, fermentation in wooden vats, distillation in copper and aging in barrels, thus reinforcing the educational and community dimension of the brand.

By choosing Pico do Marumbi and its Novo Fogo cachaça, you are opting for a spirit where the purity of agricultural rum meets the best of the Brazilian terroir , resulting in an incomparable taste experience, marked by authenticity and sustainability.
