produced cachaça in Brazil since 1906 — fresh sugar cane juice, a full vertical chain, one of the most authentic expressions of the category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"threetwo1-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eThe Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThoquino is the Brazilian cachaça produced by the Thomaz de Aquino family distillery, which has been in operation since 1906. More than a century later it remains a family producer, running a full vertical chain — they grow the sugar cane, press the juice on site, ferment, distil and bottle within the same operation. Nothing is bought in from third parties; the cane that leaves the field at one end of the process is the cachaça that goes into the bottle at the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe cachaça category is the largest spirit category in Brazil and one of the largest in the world by volume, but the international market only sees a fraction of the country's production. Most of what is exported is industrial cachaça built around column distillation. Thoquino sits in the other camp — small-scale, family-run, made from fresh cane juice rather than molasses, in the artisanal tradition that defines the cachaça country drinks at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eCachaça (or \"aguardente de cana\", to use the older Portuguese term) is by law a Brazilian-only product made from the fermented juice of sugar cane. Thoquino is a direct line into that tradition. 3Two1 Drinks distributes \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cachaca-thoquino-brazil\"\u003eThoquino Cachaça\u003c\/a\u003e across Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"threetwo1-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhat Makes It Different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe crucial fact is what Thoquino is made from. Cachaça by definition is distilled from fresh sugar cane juice — not from molasses, which is the byproduct base for most international rum production. That juice-vs-molasses split is the same divide that separates Caribbean rum from French Caribbean rhum agricole. Thoquino sits firmly on the juice side of the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eFresh cane juice gives cachaça a green, grassy, almost vegetal character — closer in family to a rhum agricole than to a Caribbean rum. The flavour is brighter, more aromatic, with the raw sweetness of pressed cane still legible in the finished spirit. The Thoquino expression is bottled at 40% ABV, the standard cachaça strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eBecause the Thomaz de Aquino distillery runs the full vertical — own cane, own press, own fermentation, own still — the producer controls every variable in the chain. That control is the reason small-batch artisanal cachaças like Thoquino taste different to mass-market Brazilian exports, and the reason they reward bartenders who want a real Caipirinha rather than a corner-cut version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"threetwo1-section\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eThe Range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"threetwo1-grid\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"threetwo1-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThoquino Cachaça\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e40% ABV.
