Cachaca is the local speciality, a sugar cane spirit drunk pure or mixed with lime, sugar and ice to make the most traditional Brazilian cocktail - caipirinha. There are many brands of cachaca and Armazem da Cachaca offers hundreds of them. They sell not only cachaca from the area but also from other parts of the country; some of the best are from Minas Gerais. The leading brands from Paraty are Paratiana, Coqueiro, Corisco, Mare Alta...
Cachaca can be pure or flavoured with sugar cane, cinnamon, coconut... Some bottles are real pieces of art and very suitable as a present. I've got a small bottle of Paratiana with cinnamon from Silvana and really liked it!
Before buying it you can taste some, but don't forget it is really strong and so not advisable to experiment it too much :)

During the colonial time Paraty attracted painters, poets and intellectuals. The pleasant surroundings of cobblestone streets, charming architecture and calm life still inspire all types of works of art and continue to attract artists from all over the world.
In Paraty you can find the most diverse styles of art from paintings, ceramics, mosaics, jewellery, but don't forget that the most traditional art works are those produced by the native Indians.
There are many small art and craft shops and galleries selling all kinds of nice and original hand made products so don't let to spend a couple of hours visiting these places. The streets of Centro Historico are filled with them. You can find good bargains and buy nice pieces of art for a good price.

Everything in this shop seems special as they have a modern, very impressive style. Though a little pricey, it deserves a visit as all the items are very artistic and make up a perfect gift. You can find small articles like rings, ear rings, bracelets, necklaces, key rings..... And bigger ones like beautifully decorated glasses, pictures frames, stools, decorative items, bags, pots, even tables! They have a lot of pictures on the Internet. Have a look! They are very impressive and imaginative. You can buy on Internet, too.

Escritório da Cachaça is a very well equipped alcohol store that mostly sells Cachaça which is the localy produced sugar cane rum that is mostly known for being used in caipirinhas.
You can get some very good quality in there and it is certainly worth a visit even if you are not the biggest alcohol drinker.

There are plenty of t-shirt shops all over Parati...but Baboo shop is the best one. On our last night, we bought about a dozen shirts from this store after having walked into all other tshirt stores in the town. Baboo Shop had the best quality cotton and the best designs.
