Leblon Cachaca |
Leblon traps a tequila-like nose with transparent fruity and herbal notes, as well as undertones of vanilla. The full-bodied palate is smooth with complex layers of citrus, vanilla, pepper, and the most subtle oak. For such a lively spirit, the warm, velvety finish is a lasting surprise.
A luxury pure sugar cane spirit that captures the spirit of Brazil. Cachaca is essential to making caipirinha. 'Top Cachaca' Double Gold Medal at the 2007 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Cachaca is a Brazilian spirit distilled from sugar cane juice. Unlike Rum, which is usually made from molasses, Cachaca can only be made from fresh cane juice, and can only be made in Brazil. Since Cachaca is made from fresh cane juice, and not molasses (a derivative of sugar cane), it has a fruitier, fresher nose than rum.
