A crisp, tangy Brazilian white cachaça, Sagatiba means "the infinite saga". This unaged spirit was awarded 91 points from the Chicago Beverage Testing Institute who described it as "excellent"!
Sweet, tangy nose with notes of caramel and fresh herbs.
A spiced, herbal palate with notes of pear drop, crème caramel and candy floss.
Short-to-medium finish. Spicy.
I've used this cachaça in both the brazil 66 and numerous caipirinhas. It fares incredibly well in both, not too harsh but also enough funk to stand out against the lime.
Just had some delivered.Will let you know when I've made a few capirinhas later! First impression on opening and tasting,it needs to be let down as it's pretty harsh neat.
Has a really strange stale old boots lingering flavor, /liquorice.....
