Discover the richer, smoother side of Brazil's national spirit with Velho Barreiro Cachaça Gold. A premium-aged expression of the beloved sugarcane spirit that delivers both depth and drinkability. Matured in Brazilian jequitibá wood casks, this golden cachaça gains character, complexity, and a mellow finish that makes it perfect for both sipping and elevated cocktails.
Unlike white rum or unaged cachaça, Velho Barreiro Gold brings together the natural vibrancy of sugarcane with the subtle warmth of wood aging, offering a distinctly Brazilian twist on aged spirits that's perfect for adventurous drinkers and classic cocktail lovers alike.
Tasting Notes
Appearance
A soft golden hue with crystal clarity, thanks to aging in native Brazilian hardwoods that impart subtle colour without heavy tannins.
Nose
Enticing aromas of light caramel, sugarcane honey, and vanilla, followed by hints of baking spice, dried tropical fruit, and a touch of oak smoke.
Palate
Smooth and mellow with a medium body. Notes of toasted sugarcane, light wood spice, and dried coconut blend beautifully with undertones of clove, banana, and vanilla bean. The jequitibá wood aging lends a distinctive earthy softness that rounds off the edges.
Finish
Warm, lingering, and subtly sweet, with notes of light toffee, white pepper, and a gentle herbal fade.
