Description from food designer

Our Amazon Nuts vegetable drink (milk) was developed based on the tripod: nutritional, social, and environmental impact.

Nutritional - Amazon nuts are rich in Selenium, Zinc, Vitamins B and E, Potassium, Phosphorus, Magnesium; it is recognised for its immunological, antioxidant, and DNA synthesis benefits. Environmental and Social - Extractivism is 100% sustainable: Brazil/Amazon nut trees help keep the forest standing and extractivists are generally people from the forest; collecting and processing nuts is their source of income. It took us a year to develop an extremely tasty, consistent, and versatile formula. The drink can be consumed at room temperature, hot, cold, with coffee, cereals, and in sweet and savoury recipes. Its flavour is smooth, slightly sweet, and reminiscent of a mixture of almonds and coconut.

Additional information from food designer

Cuíca is a genuinely Brazilian company, a Food Tech focused on developing nutritious foods and drinks, made with ingredients from Brazilian biomes. Our first product is the Amazon nut drink, but we will launch isotonic drinks, snacks, cereals and other products still in R&D. The Brazilian market has a lot of potential to absorb our line, but we will also focus on the foreign market, where such categories are already more established but without the innovative factor of Brazilian ingredients, which are nutritious and help to regenerate biomes and preserve ecosystems. In 2023 we participated in Websummit Rio with a stand, which brought us great visibility and took us to the Netherlands, to the Food Valley in Wageningen, where we intend to establish our base in Europe.
