Learn more about the brand's history
The name Bacanha means beautiful and good in Brazil, where our cane sugar comes from. In the Greek and Roman world, "Bacchanalia" was the name of festivals celebrated in honor of the god Bacchus.
The name therefore evokes the origin of the main ingredient which is sugar, and the festive side, the spirit of sharing which is at the heart of our brand and the art of living that we want to transmit!
The origin of syrups dates back to the history of Ancient Greece and Rome. At that time, fresh fruits were dipped in honey to be able to preserve them. During this period, the syrup had three main uses: in drink, with water or to sweeten wine, in cooking (syrup called
defrutum) to give flavor to food and also in medicine to treat with the virtues of certain plants. and fruits… In the 17th century, the recipe changed, it was evaporated and concentrated fruit water which was mixed with a sugar syrup.
Maison Bacanha created the “Sirop Brut” appellation to highlight complex and unique blends, composed of simple, natural and high-end ingredients, all honoring the traditional history of syrup.

Our flavors are produced in the Grasse region of France, but the raw materials can come from different countries. We choose natural extracts, essential oils, fruit juices and aromas, hence the “raw” designation that we have created for our syrups. We do not use colorings or preservatives, so the syrups have natural colors, little or no color depending on the recipe and the fruit.
The syrup is made in our workshop, near Paris, where the bottles are also labeled and packaged by us.
We use amber glass bottles that protect the syrup from light so that it is drinkable for longer. Glass is a mineral material and can be recycled endlessly.
You can use our syrups in drinks (with water or in many recipes, in cocktails, with coffee or tea), in cooking and baking to enhance the taste of certain foods, but also in medicine for the virtues of certain herbs and plants.
