Goan feni brand features in BBC Good Food mag

In what can be described as a major boost to Goa’s heritage and culture, a home-bred cashew feni brand called ‘Cazulo’ was rated as one of the top 10 national spirits by BBC Good Food. This is a huge achievement for ‘Cazulo’ brand because BBC Good Food is a world-famous magazine with readership in several countries.

Hansel Vaz, founder of Cazulo, said, “This is a humongous achievement for us. I have never corresponded with BBC and therefore I had no clue about this at all. My friends from London called to congratulate me and I was pleasantly surprised.”

Apart from cashew feni, there were nine other spirits in the list of best national spirits in the world, each representing a different country.
