Discover the legend of Capi Cachaça
Long ago, the Brazilian Pantanal was the world’s largest tropical wetland, a wild and untamed land where creatures of all kinds roamed. Among them were a herd of capybaras who, during one of their annual expeditions, stumbled upon a remarkable discovery: sugarcane.
Intrigued by this new find, the herd chose their most curious, Capi, to remain behind and unlock the secrets of this extraordinary plant. When he finally returned home, he brought with him a revolutionary creation: cachaça.
He quickly shared it with the other animals. With their help, his creation spread to every corner of the Pantanal.
Capi’s cachaça was more than a drink—it was a catalyst for change. The animals who tasted his spirit found themselves transformed into sophisticated and stylish members of a new, thriving society. The Pantanal was forever changed, as Capi’s cachaça bridged the wild with the refined, uniting the realm in a celebration of culture and camaraderie.
