“She’s a witch.” Not for spell-casting, but for the quality of her Cachaça. That’s how the owner of Trinca, São Paulo, described Maria Izabel.
Cachaça is Brazil’s national spirit, fermented sugarcane juice. Not molasses like most rum. Not pressed juice like Rum Agricole. Its own thing entirely. I first discovered fine Cachaça at the German Rum Festival in Berlin, 2015. Until then, only cheaper labels in India.
A pit stop in Paraty first, Costa Verde’s cobbled colonial town, dotted with Cachacarias. Then, an unmarked jungle road with Jhony, my Uber driver, until a hacienda appeared on a headland by the Atlantic. Infinity pool. Alembic still. Marmosets fed by hand. Not your usual distillery.
Maria Izabel’s family made Cachaça in the 1700s. She bought this estate in 1986, brought the first seedlings out by canoe, no roads then. “I had an idea, therefore.” 4,000 litres a year. Cane is cut and processed the same day. Soil rotated between cycles. No other Paraty producer follows her practices.
Eight expressions, a Blue Cachaça flavoured with mandarin leaves, an unaged Prata, Jequitiba-aged, through to an 8-year-old finished in Port casks. Maturation room below: Jequitiba, American Oak, Port Pipes, French Oak. “Just drink these neat.”
Tasting cost: 10 Reais. Bottles’ home: considerably more.
Her daughter, a potter, had just fed the marmosets outside. Inside sat a Ganesha she had made. A quiet India-Brazil moment. “I don’t even drink alcohol,” she told me.
What happens to a legacy this old when its keeper is gone? Perhaps a grandchild finds her diaries and starts again.
