BUCCO & the magic of Buchu
In the mountains of South Africa grows an inconspicuous plant with amazing power: Agathosma betulina, better known as Buchu. It has been valued for centuries – and it is precisely this that gives our non-alcoholic aperitif BUCCO its unmistakable character.
What makes Buchu so special?
Buchu belongs to the rue family and grows in the unique Fynbos regions of South Africa. Even the indigenous Khoisan people were aware of its special properties.
The small, leathery leaves exude an intense aroma that is surprising: peppermint meets rosemary, with a hint of blackcurrant – fresh, spicy, and at the same time slightly fruity. A scent that piques curiosity. A taste that remains in the memory.
Strength from nature
But Buchu can do more than just taste good. The plant contains valuable essential oils and flavonoids. Traditionally, it was used for inflammation, digestive complaints, and urinary tract infections. Its antiseptic, diuretic, and antioxidant properties make it a valued medicinal plant to this day.
In short: Buchu stands for natural enjoyment with added value.
BUCCO – an aperitif with character
For BUCCO, we use the natural aromatics of Buchu as the centerpiece. The result is a complex, refreshing flavor profile: herbal, citrusy, with a fine blackcurrant note and an elegant spice on the finish.
Whether enjoyed neat over ice, topped with tonic, or as a creative base for non-alcoholic cocktails – BUCCO is versatile and surprisingly different. The balance between sweetness and spice makes it the perfect companion: from a relaxed summer evening to a festive dinner.
Nature meets indulgence
With Buchu, we bring a piece of South African plant power into the glass. BUCCO is more than a non-alcoholic aperitif – it is a tribute to traditional herbal knowledge, modern culture of enjoyment, and conscious quality.
So, if you are looking for an aperitif that not only refreshes but also tells a story, then discover BUCCO – and let yourself be surprised by the magic of Buchu.
