Charanda is a Mexican spirit protected by a "Denominacion de Origen" (D.O) produced in the state of Michoacán, in the center-west of the country. For over 113 years, the Pacheco family has been producing Charanda, also known as "Guarapo". The Casa Tarasco distillery is located in the city of Urapan. The Sol Tarasco range is produced with local sugar cane. The Pachecos family selects sugar cane grown at an altitude of over 1270 meters. Sol Tarasco is produced using traditional production methods, distillation is done in copper pot stills, before being aged in ex-bourbon and sherry barrels for a minimum of 4 years, and bottled at 40° with no added sugar.

CASA TARASCO

Casa Tarasco, Uruapan Charanda, a family tradition since 1907. The Pacheco family has been producing Charanda in the city of Uruapan in the state of Michoacán, Mexico for more than 113 years. The ‘Uruapan’ brand takes its name from the hometown of the Pacheco family, which has a long history in the region. However, the family’s involvement with distillation goes back even further. In 1908, Don Cleofas Murgia decided to switch from mezcal production to distilling sugar cane, as mezcal was not particularly popular and sugar cane distillates offered more profitable, visible activities. Miriam Pacheco now runs the family company, continuing the tradition of Charanda production. The Pachecos’ desire to protect and preserve the local tradition of sugar cane distillation was highlighted in 2003, when the family secured the creation of a D.O. (an appellation of origin) protecting all Charanda producers.
