Many questions still troubled our minds and were yet to be answered: What shall we produce? Why should we do it? How can we do it?
Very quickly, we decided that our spirits and the way we would produce them, should reflect the connection between our lives and the island. Both of us had lived out of Madeira for many years but always returned to the island. Why? The island had this strong and strange connection to the World but was able to attract us, like a magnet, time and time again. Thus we decided to honour those who left the island in demanding times but, like us, never forgot it.
I hope you enjoy drinking our spirits as we did making them. Savour them slowly…just as they were made.
Cheers,
Maria Nascimento
