Jequitibá is a genuinely Brazilian wood, used especially for cachaças that want to be more neutral in flavor and maintaining an original velvety taste of the brandy.
Aroma:
Jequitibá is known for its subtlety in interfering with the aroma of cachaça. Unlike more aromatic woods, Jequitibá enhances the natural aroma of cachaça without overloading it with intense woody notes. This results in a drink with fresh, slightly fruity nuances, and with the pure essence of sugarcane.
Flavor:
The flavor of cachaça stored in Jequitibá is smooth. The wood gives a slight softness to the drink, making it softer and velvetier to the palate, without introducing too intense flavors. This allows the cachaça to maintain its main characteristics.
Pairing:
As it is a cachaça with a more neutral and delicate profile, it harmonizes well with light dishes, such as fish, seafood and fresh salads. It's also a great choice for cocktails like caipirinhas, as its subtlety allows other ingredients to shine without competing with the alcoholic base. However, its purity and smoothness also make it perfect to be enjoyed pure, allowing the taster to taste the true essence of cachaça.
Ingredients:
Fermented must of cana-de-açúcar broth.
