This cachaça from Felixlândia, in Minas Gerais' Central region, originated from a still established in the early 20th century by the family's founder, who managed production until the 1940s. Then, one of his three sons took over. Cachaças aged a minimum of 24 months in Jequitibá-Rosa and Amburana wood, resulting in the 2007 blend crafted by Mr. Adão. This established blend has recently become the benchmark for Flor das Gerais. Appearance: Clear with a yellow hue. Body: Brilliant with a strong golden color.

Taste: Characteristic of Amburana-aged cachaças, it presents a distinct sweetness evoking caramel and molasses. Similar to the aroma, the taste also reveals notes of chestnuts, fennel, and coconut. A present, lingering finish with moderate acidity. Found on the Flor da Gerais website.
