About Cachaca Pitu Do Brasil

Cachaça Pitu do Brasil is one of the country's most recognisable cachaça brands, named after the local river shrimp "pitu" found in the rivers of Pernambuco. For the newcomer, Pitu is an accessible and affordable entry point into the world of cachaça; for anyone familiar with Brazilian drinking culture, the red shrimp on the label is one of the most recognisable trademarks in the country's spirits history, sold in vast quantities for decades.

History & Background

Pitu was founded in 1938 in Recife, in the state of Pernambuco, at a time when cachaça was beginning to be industrialised and distributed on a large scale across Brazil. The name and logo, the red river shrimp, reference a species historically abundant in the region's rivers and a familiar part of local food and fishing culture. Through the 20th century Pitu grew to become one of Brazil's best-selling cachaça brands and is now exported across several continents.

History & background

The brand was founded in 1938 and has since grown into one of the country's most widespread and recognisable cachaça brands.

Production & style

The cachaça is distilled from fresh sugarcane juice and matured only briefly, giving it a clean, sugarcane-forward character.

Clean, Sugarcane, Light
The flavour is light and clean, with clear sugarcane sweetness.
