Freddy, one of the local guides that accompanied us, summarized the wealth of the gentleman behind the counter when he told me that his family “own 143 hectares.”
This gentleman’s family , again from Freddy, was a “pioneer family” in the region and consequently has done well for themselves. With their distillery, folks from up and down the river will stop to buy their alcohol here.
As a side-note, you can see illustrations of the owner’s family above the bar. These kinds of mementos seemed to be popular.

Hi Gavan, we came across your stiking photo of the red-bellied piranha fish and we’d love to use it as a cover photo for our March/April AAA Go Magazine (we have a feature story about Amazon trips). We would gladly give you photo credit and copies of the printed publication. Please contact me at your soonest convenience!
