51 Light Cachaca

its rather tasty when Your are loaded. I wouldn't recommand it fairly sober.

The bottle is cheap, yet bright and not ugly. Stunning aroma of black currant, yeast, duchess, tree bark. The taste is sweet woody with significant bitterness, which is masked by sugar. This Brazilian moonshine has enough symbolic accompaniment to give a burst of animal warmth and energy. And after the whole carnival, the reckoning will overtake the state of health for the low degree of purification and added sugar. ....... Бутылка дешёвая, при этом не уродливая и яркая. Сногсшибательный аромат чёрной смородины, дрожжей, дюшеса, древесной коры. Вкус сладкий древесный со значительной горечью, которую замаскировали сахаром. Этому бразильскому самогону достаточно символического сопровождения, чтобы он дал прилив животного тепла и энергии. И после всего карнавала настигнет расплата самочувствием за невысокую степень очистки и добавленный сахар.

Had couple of shots of this in brasilian restaurant and liked it.
Smooth, a bit sweet and flowery, was a pleasure at the end of the night.

Caution, this is the only cachaca I have tried so I have nothing to compare it to. It starts off nice, vegetal and mildly sweet, but there is a lingering note of something very unpleasant that I don't know how to describe.

Cheap, raw stuff. Meant for mixing, with almost no real character.

This is the 1st cachaca I have ever tried and while it tastes rough neat, I believe it brings enough of the grassy notes to a basic caipirinha cocktail as well as a batida de coco. Can't wait to explore further with this class of spirits.

Nothing special when tasted neat, but works very well in a Caprinha.
So that’s the way to use it!
Picture: Our drinks before going to a tapas bar in Nerja, Spain.

Nothing special when tasted neat. Good for the famous "caipirinha".

If you want to taste a real caipirinhas you have to get this bottle. Get a big glass, cut 1,5 lime, 2 tea spoons of brown sugar and get to work crushing everything. Add crushed ice and cachaça and shake that baby!

I would love to travel to Martinique, but until then, I can sample the rum for a taste of the island. A bit dry and oaky for my taste but quite flavorful.
