Tasting Notes
"The time spent maturing in French oak has softened and rounded this aged cachaça, which opens with vanilla, brown sugar and orange peel on the nose. The rich palate offers crème brûlée, honey, pine nuts and oak, with the familiar funky, vegetal character of cachaça in the background. The warm finish offers more honey and pine nuts, with hints of baking spices."
