Beija cachaca
Beija Cachaça is a Brazilian cachaça, owned by Beija Corp, and produced in their facilities in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Beija is an 80 proof, clear artisan cachaça that is distilled in Brazil, bottled in France and retails in the United States.
The sugarcane used to create Beija is hand-harvested, pressed and enters distillation on the same day. In recognition of this production standard, the TTB designated Beija as the world's first 'Virgin cane rum' in Summer 2007.
Origin of Name
The name Beija is a conjugation of the Portuguese very Beijar, meaning ‘to kiss’. Beija translates to English as ‘She Kisses’.
