Novo Fogo Single Barrel 87 Cachaça
Cachaça
Novo Fogo // Paraná, Brazil
RARE
Single-barrel aged spirit is a concept more often associated with whiskey than it is sugarcane. However, Novo Fogo, in the Brazilian state of Paraná in Brazil, decided to give it a go with their cachaça.
Each 53-gallon ex-Four Roses bourbon barrel is sanded and re-toasted before the spirit is placed in it for aging. This cachaça from barrel 87 spent 5 years in a warehouse near the tropical Atlantic Rainforest, so sadly the hot and thirsty angels only left us 300 bottles.

Tasting Notes
"If you want candy, this cachaça is for you! Dried dates, figs, mango, and pineapple rings are covered in sticky toffee and dark caramel. Malted milk chocolate provides a nougat-filled center, with a bit of a walnut, black tea, clove, and coconut. A whiff of cigar smoke tastes as though it's blowing over the glass toward the tart finish. "
