Cachaça

Cachaça is a traditional Brazilian spirit made directly from fresh sugarcane juice. Although it’s often compared to rum, its flavor profile is distinct – fresher, more herbal, and deeply authentic, with notes of cane and tropical fruit.

How it’s made

Unlike most rums distilled from molasses, cachaça is produced by fermenting and distilling fresh sugarcane juice. This process gives it a gentle, vegetal, and slightly earthy taste that reflects the Brazilian terroir and the sunny climate where it’s made.

Taste and use

Cachaça has a light body and fresh aroma, often showing hints of cane, lime, banana, and herbs. It shines both on its own and as the base for the iconic Caipirinha cocktail, where its natural sugarcane freshness truly stands out.
