Cachaça Magos de Minas is produced in Itaverava, Minas Gerais, but is moving to the city of Betim, Minas Gerais. According to the producer, the change in location is the result of the search for increased quality in production and its flow via trade and export, as Betim is a dry port. The cachaça has a characteristic yellow tone, crystal clear, bright. Prepared as a blend, having in its composition a batch of cachaça stored in oak barrels and a batch of cachaça stored in amburana, mixed in a personalized proportion for a smooth sensorial identity with a striking woody flavor emerging without excess, sweet with a touch of chestnuts, smooth chocolate /cocoa, honey, roasted and spicy with a delicate note of spices in the background. Both parts spent at least 2 years stored in each wood. Versatile, it can be enjoyed fresh in single dose shots (50ml) or on the rocks with 1/3 of the glass and a maximum of 2 ice cubes. On hot days it can be previously cooled to 20ºC or less, not exceeding 12ºC, remembering that this will temporarily retain the aromas that will evolve with the natural ambient heating after serving. It pairs best with lightly salted and low-fat dishes, medium-aged cheeses, as well as frugal sweets and milk chocolate. In drinks, be careful when preparing the amount of syrup and added sugar, as it already has a natural sweetness from aging in wood. Source: Cachaça Magos de Minas website.
