Pitu Light Cachaca

A nice Cachaca, very suitable for Caipirinhas. Oily and tasty

Gasoliney industrial cachaca, almost anything is better. Ypioca is about the same price and much better.

Strong, but chemical cane juice character and little else to offer.
Nose is grassy, a bit rubbery but no spice or fruit that promises anything beyond a chemical bath that at least brought happy memories from experiencing darkroom work.

Unfortunately the palate and aftertaste is pretty much identical apart from a faint, grassy impression of cane juice. A caipirinha based on Pitù needs serious amounts of sugar before any flavours reminiscent of fruit or spice is revealed.

I bought this after drinking Cachaca at a Brazilian restaurant thinking I could replicate the drink I was served. That was a mistake. This is not a bad mixer, but not what I think of as a rum. This bottle has been in my cabinet for many years because I am just not fond of it.

Good for mixed drink its special made from fresh sugar cane Normally not called Rum but Cachaca

Nu mi-a placut deloc. Are o aroma de zici ca-i o tuica ieftina. N-am putut sa o beau decat amestecata.

Widely used for Caipirinha, maybe that is why Caipi often has bad Reputation?
Bought one bottle once, and it is still well filled after years. It was my first Cachaca, and because I thought it was a reference I sneered at Cachaca in general for a long time.
So: Just use another one, this is the Bacardi of Cachacas!
I prefer Cachaca 51.

Maybe for caipirinha if you want to get hangover the next day.
I do not recommend.

Don’t bother drinking neat. Some lime and caster sugar are all that’s needed.

There some vegetal qualities. Make no mistake, this can only be used in caipirinhas, and even then it's not super great. Search out other cachacas.
