Boca Loca Launches At London's Made In Brasil

Here's a brief slideshow of Boca Loca's recent launch at Made In Brasil. RumFest founder Ian Burrell was in attendance.

Restaurant reviews:

Made In Brasil is an authentic cachacaria, which is Brazilian for House of Cachaca; a place where you can find all types of Cachaca (sugar cane rum). With over seventy on offer, these can be enjoyed straight, with coke or as a Caipirinha.

ViewLondon

The most traditional cachaca drink, a Caipirinha – where a healthy measure of the spirit is mixed with fresh lime, sugar and crushed ice – is the most popular option, but the bar offers a vast array of variations on this theme, including the banana or the staff-recommended chilli-raspberry versions.

Their cocktail menu (PDF) currently features Sagatiba heavily.

Hi Phil,
do you know when Boca Loca will be available in any onlineshop like thewhiskyexchange.com or thedrinkshop.com? I would like to order Boca Loca, Cabana and Leblon to write some reviews for my blog. They are all not available in Germany until now.
Regards,
Alessandro

About Cachaçagora

Hi. My name is Phil Gomes. By day, I work at a public relations firm as its senior vice president of digital integration. I'm a proud SF East Bay native who currently lives in Chicago.
I was introduced to cachaça by my wife, a Carioca. Her mom, in turn, is the president of the Confraria de Cachaça do Copo Furado, a group that meets monthly to talk about Brazil's indigenous spirit. I participated in one of their meetings when I vacationed in Rio in July 2008.
This started me thinking about the basic question of whether cachaça in the U.S. is today where, say, tequila was some decades ago.
So I decided to start this blog as a means to record and share the cachaça-related items I've been seeing day-to-day. I hope to be sharing recipes, impressions, and random thoughts as the U.S. continues to catch on to the potential for this particular spirit.
Oh... The name? "Cachaçagora" is a portmanteau of "Cachaça" and "agora", which is the Portuguese word for "now". In Greek, "agora" also means public square. I hope to meet the expectations of both.
Saúde!

Cachaçagora - Cachaça, Caipirinha, And Cocktails

Quite possibly the best English-language blog about cachaça, the national distilled spirit of Brazil.
