Gold color. Aromas and flavors of Amburana wood, winter spices, and light wood smoke, vanilla, ginger, dried apples and figs, honey bun, cookie dough, and brown sugar with a medium-to-full body and a medium-to-long finish imparting notes of nag champa, milk chocolate with nut and apple paste, root beer, honey buns, and crushed black and green peppercorns. A lighter take on wood-aged Cachaça with all the typical flavors you’d expect from a Brazilian classic; will be great in a Caipirinha.
