Among the 10 most recent food and beverage rounds shown, the largest disclosed amount is DUX’s $44M (2025-02-18), which dwarfs the rest: the next-highest disclosed rounds are $32M (Liv Up, 2021-06-16) and $7M (Smart Break, 2022-12-02), with several other entries clustered under $1M–$300K (e.g., Chefia $190K on 2025-09-18; Beeva $800K on 2022-01-14; Haoma $980K on 2025-01-08). Stage and geography also cluster: São Paulo (including multiple “São Paulo, Sao Paulo” listings) appears repeatedly across rounds from 2020-03-01 (Startup Brewing Company) through the most recent 2025-09-18 (Chefia), while the disclosed dates span about five years overall.

Timing shows a renewed cadence in 2025, with three rounds disclosed between 2025-01-08 and 2025-09-18 (Haoma $980K on 2025-01-08; DUX $44M on 2025-02-18; Chefia $190K on 2025-09-18). For classification, “Series Unknown” is the most common stated label here (5 of 10 rows), while the only explicitly labeled “Series A” is Olga Ri at $6M (2022-05-19).
