Avuá Amburana Cachaça

Cachaça tasting with some buddies. My first experience with this beautiful liquor. Tried to take notes of my impressions as I was sampling. Warm, fresh, semisweet, fruity (melon?), spicy and woody, mild finish.

Absolutely phenomenal stuff. Leagues beyond your basic cachaca. Warm, inviting nose with flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, chocolate and subtle citrus like orange. Whats even better, is that this was a gift from a manager, and we all know free booze is all that much sweeter.

warm & savory cinnamons & baking spices

One of the most unique spirits I’ve ever tasted. Intensely nutty and oily. Lower rating because it’s not my thing, but this may be a great cachaca and I wouldn’t be able to comment one way or the other.

Very interesting herbal and tropical fruit mineralities from caraway, tangerine, mango, guava. Tastes like something from the Amazon River.

Overripe tropical fruit, smooth finish
