Sustainability

All practices of manufacturing cachaça Blu are based upon a zero-waste philosophy which means all residual components are re-used as compost.

Starting by milling, what’s left from the bagasse has three different destinations: livestock feed, compost to create manure for sugarcane fields and fuel for the boiler.

Once the fermentation and distillation processes are over, all waste left in the form of vinasse is then stored and afterwards sprayed on the sugarcane fields as a fertilizer.

Yeast leftovers are used to feed cattle or even mixed with vinasse. These, as well as the manure generated by the farm animals, are mixed with sugarcane bagasse to make compost.

As of the boiler, this can be fueled either with bagasse or wood from reforestation. Once the ashes come out, they are mixed with vinasse with the purpose to serve as fertilizer.

On top of all this, solar panels are plenty throughout the whole property which guarantee the farm and all sorts of equipment and premises with clean energy.

Being considerate and grateful to nature with the long-term in mind: principles which will always uphold every step Cachaça Blu takes.
