When the bottle is opened, an immediate aroma fills the air.
The Nose is something to behold: Cooked Plantains, Cinnamon and Wood.
Unfortunately, it is not as pleasant on the palate. The alcohol takes over and spice lingers.
Great to try, but not "go-to" sipper.
I’ve been drinking my way through the cachaças in this line and this one is a stand-out. The aging in the amburana wood has added a bold baking-spice element that’s really lovely. There’s a good cocktail with it as well, though it’s a great supper: 2oz amburana cachaça; 1oz oloroso sherry; 1/2oz giffard’s Banane de Brésil c/o @cocktailwonk I believe. Santé!
solid overall, very smooth but I usually dislike aged cane rums because they lose the intensity and funk of the base, and agree here. Not too different from oak
With a subtle dark berry flavor toward the end of it all, it's better than many.
Really interesting stuff Has a lot of cinnamon and allspice notes, from the Amburana wood. The Amburana also gives it some sweetness, and makes it smooth. Use it in tiki cocktails that call for Martinique Rhum/Rhum Agricole, especially ones like Three Dots and a Dash, Last Rites, and the Donga Punch.
Not as sweet and a little heavier alcohol flavor up front that mellows. Big blast of cinnamon/allspice considering its not labeled a spiced rum. Might really shine in the right drink. Straight a little above average
I do like cachaca, but this just strikes me as another one of those creative cask expressions that didn't really work.
N- Big hits of golden raisin, followed by some sugar, raw egg and cinnamon.
P- More golden raisin along with tree sap and some vanilla
F- Some vegetal stuff finally comes out.
Immediately on smelling it, it's very apparent that it's different from the Prata. They have very little in common.
The noise is very interesting. Cinnamon, artificially flavored French toast, varnish, and—I kid you not—new disposable diapers. Super weird! Once I made that connection, there was no enjoyment to be had.
This stuff has potential, but IMO, it should be mixed away in something that can mask/counter the flavor.
I'd be interested in tasting other cachaças aged in Amburana wood to get a better sense of what it's adding to the distillate (as well as the Avua Oak for comparison). But so far, for my money, I'll go with the young, steel-rested distillate.
5, 5+
I didn't care for this avua offering, I found the amburana a tad too much for me. I like cacahaca, and appreciate the grass-like nature and woodiness it can attain, but this didn't work for me.
Try to get a well lit shot from the front of the rum label

It’s aged. But that’s all I can say. I love the cocktail but this is not one I’d spend much time on.
