Tasting Notes An excellent traditional cachaça from Velho Barreiro. An intense vegetal aroma, with lemon peel, green apple, and pear drops. Very clean and the perfect base to the national Brazilian cocktail Caipirinha.

Vinification/Maturation Our Cachaça is made from fresh fine sugar cane juice raised on our own farms. Using the top quality fermentation process, specific to producing Cachaça, the distillation is controlled by our master distiller in copper pot stills and only uses the heart of the distillate. It is then stored in large oak vats made of the Brazilian oak Jequitib , which imparts no flavor or color to the product.
