Founded in 1909 by a very traditional portuguese family, the distillery is located in Rio Claro in the beautiful and agricultural based country side of S?o Paulo. Farming and harvesting their own sugarcane in one of the best regions because of its ideal microclimate and soil. Velho Barreiro Cacha‡a is one of the top selling and more tradicional Cacha‡as in Brasil, recognized for its quality and also by its unique bottle.
Tasting NotesAn excellent traditional cachaca from Velho Barreiro. An intense vegetal aroma, with subtle hints of oak and spice from 3 years aging in Jequitib Rosa. The Same lemon peel, green apple, and pear drops found in the original Velho Barreiro shine through with more depth and complexity. Very clean and the perfect base to the national Brazilian cocktail Caipirinha, any rhum based cocktail, or served neat.
Vinification/MaturationOur Cacha‡a is made from fresh fine sugar cane juice raised on our own farms. Using the top quality fermentation process, specific to producing Cacha‡a, the distillation is controled by our master distiller in copper pot stills and only uses the heart of the distillate. It is then stored in large oak vats made of the Brazilian oak Jequitib Rosa, which imparts just the lightest hint of color and spice.
