Cachaça

Cachaça is a Brazilian distilled spirit made from fermented sugarcane juice. It is often enjoyed neat, in cocktails like the famous Caipirinha, or used in cooking. Unlike rum, which is typically made from molasses, cachaça is distilled directly from fresh sugarcane juice, giving it a distinct, earthy flavor profile that ranges from sweet and fruity to spicy and herbal, depending on the production method. It holds cultural significance in Brazil and is one of the country's national drinks. Cachaça’s versatility and unique taste make it a popular choice among spirits enthusiasts around the world.
