We the People, in order to form a more perfect bar, seek to establish Cachaça as 'Cachaça,' Brazil's Noblve Spirit.
We formally and necessarily declare that Cachaça is independent of, and therefore not, 'Brazilian Rum.'
We make this declaration with no prejudice or malice towards Rum, nor to any other of our brethren spirits, such as Vodka, Tequila, or Gin.
To prove the above, let facts be submitted to a candid world: We recognize that Cachaça is made only from fresh-pressed Cane Juice, not molasses, and can only come from Brazil.
We declare that Cachaça is the key ingredient to the Caipirinha, Brazil's National Cocktail.
We also recognize that Cachaça mixes well with just about anything - fruit juices, sodas, and tonics - and brings a wonderful Brazilian touch to any classic cocktail.
We therefore hold these truths to be self-evident; that Cachaça is Brazil's Noble Spirit, endowed by its creator with certain unalienable characteristics, that among these are a fruity nose, fresh taste, and a long, clean finish.
And in support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the confidence of our combined passion and expertise, we mutually pledge our understanding, our professionalism and our sacred honor.

You are helping us reach our goal of gaining 50,000 supporters. Your support of the cause is bringing us closer to convincing the Government that Cachaça does in-fact deserve its own appellation much like Cognac and Champagne. We are continually sending updates to the United States Treasury Department showing support for the cause. Every supporter counts so that Brasil gets the respect that they deserve.
