This article explores grogue, a sugarcane‐based distilled spirit of Cabo Verde, and its multifaceted and contested valuations in culture, livelihoods, and well‐being. Despite Cabo Verde's challenging climate, sugarcane agriculture remains significant primarily due to the importance placed on the local production of grogue. The study described in this article investigates how grogue is perceived and valued among Cabo Verdeans, questioning why it promotes connectivity, sustainable livelihoods, and identity as a cultural asset and how it is entangled in a complicated colonial legacy, harmful health and negative societal outcomes, and neoliberal designs to modernize and industrialize as a cultural liability. The researchers conducted a thematic analysis of news stories and their associated comments from A Semana, the premiere daily online Cabo Verdean newspaper, to explore grogue's production, distribution, consumption, regulation, and valuation. The findings demonstrate various value registers, including identity, place, economic development, health, and social well‐being, all of which help shape Cabo Verdeans' perspectives on grogue. This article is a crucial starting point for future research aimed at developing a comprehensive understanding of artisanal spirits' proliferation and contested values. By investigating multivocal interests behind competing ideas of valuation or devaluation of grogue, the study contributes to understanding its impacts on Cabo Verdean society.

佛得角流氓的有争议的价值观

本文探讨了佛得角一种以甘蔗为原料的蒸馏酒“Grogue”,及其在文化、生计和福祉方面的多方面且有争议的评价。尽管佛得角气候充满挑战,但甘蔗农业仍然很重要,这主要是因为当地对粗粮生产的重视。本文所述的研究调查了佛得角人如何看待和评价流氓行为,质疑为什么它促进连通性、可持续生计和作为文化资产的身份,以及它如何与复杂的殖民遗产、有害健康和负面社会后果纠缠在一起,新自由主义设计将现代化和工业化作为一种​​文化负担。研究人员对新闻报道及其相关评论进行了主题分析一周是佛得角首屈一指的在线日报,探讨流氓的生产、分销、消费、监管和估值。调查结果展示了各种价值记录,包括身份、地点、经济发展、健康和社会福祉,所有这些都有助于塑造佛得角人对流氓的看法。本文是未来研究的重要起点,旨在全面了解手工烈酒的扩散和有争议的价值观。通过调查流氓估值或贬值的竞争观念背后的多方利益,该研究有助于了解其对佛得角社会的影响。
