Avua Cachaca Bringing Taste of Brazil to U.S. Drinkers

Look out America, here comes cachaça! Avua Cachaca is releasing the first Tapinhoa wood aged cachaca available in the United States this month. Pete Nevenglosky, co-founder of Avua Cachaca, explains why Cachaca, one of the top five most consumed spirits in the world is poised to explode in the U.S. Avuá Cachaça is single-sourced and pot distilled at a third generation farm about four hours from Rio. Nevenglosky said the company's mission is to challenge the perception of the cachaça category as a "one-trick caipirinha pony" through a "terroir-driven artisanal product" that expresses the 500 years of traditional production in Brazil.
