Minas Gerais, an emblematic region of Brazil, is far more renowned for its coffee and refined cachaças than for its rum. However, its tropical climate and fertile soils make it a promising ground for producing quality rum. Situated in the heart of Brazil, between mountains and verdant valleys, Minas Gerais boasts a unique microclimate that benefits the sugarcane plantations, the essential raw material for rum. The tradition of distillation in this region dates back centuries, with expertise passed down from generation to generation. Although rum from Minas Gerais is not yet widely recognised internationally, local producers are beginning to stand out with innovative artisanal creations that captivate the most discerning palates. The rums from this region are characterised by rich and complex aromas, often nuanced by notes of tropical fruits and wood. By incorporating these rums into a rum collection, enthusiasts can discover a piece of Brazilian history while expanding their collection with an authentic and exotic essence. A true invitation to a gustatory journey through the heart of Brazilian terroirs.
