Fogo
Fogo means “fire” in Portuguese, and is a fitting name for an island where the local wine is grown, harvested and served inside the caldera of an active volcano. In fact, the entire island is one giant volcano – rising from the sea to 10,000 feet in the sky. It has continuously erupted throughout history; the last major eruption was in 1995. Fogo is one of ten islands in the Republic of Cape Verde, the Portuguese-colonized country located in the Atlantic, off the coast of Western Africa.
