I read someone say this has a flavor like tequila. When I smelled this, it had an offensive smell! Horrible! Like a fart and a rotten banana! Fortunately it did not taste like that when I fought my repulsed instinct and forced myself to drink it. It did not burn too badly, and mixed well with citrus and pineapple. That being said, I would not buy again. All I taste is rotten fruit, no complexity or "tequila" smokiness at all. I have tried other cachaca brands and absolutely did taste tequila but not in this. Not a good first impression of cachaca...

I like this rum reminds me of rum Agricole in the West Indies and Cuchaca in Brazil. Great with lime splash of soda maybe a little simple syrup. Summertime cocktails.

Great Vegetal, grassy, spicy refreshing taste. Rum drinkers should give this a try.

I like this Cachaça- it’s tangy and makes great caipirinhas - very refreshing.

A boire en drink comme on le fait au Brésil un caihipirinhas. Très rafraîchissant l'été mais attention de ne pas trop en boire!

This is a very spicy and hot Cachaca. I would get this for my bar, but I could see it being used in a Rock of Brazil.

This was the first Cachaca that I have encountered. I didn’t know what to expect, but once I found a recipe for caipirinhas, I was mildly satisfied. I want to search and experiment more. Wish me luck!

A little harsh neat. Mellows and opens up in a caipi, and keeps an interesting vegetal character. There are better cachaças at this price point, if you can find a selection — but Leblon seems to be a little more widely available.

After drinking a variety of Cachaças in Cuba, I was excited to find an acceptable product here in the States, so I could make some Caipirinhas and such.

Unfortunately this will not be a repeat purchase. I suppose technically it is not a bad proxy, but there is that understated rotting vegetation odor / back of palate scent I can’t escape. I made a couple different drinks and so far still am feeling underwhelmed.
It was no “3 Buck Chuck”, so I’ll keep working on ways to use this bottle up, hopefully will stumble upon something that helps to overcome that pungent odor.

Grassy, vegetal, briney... I really like it. Easy enough to find, and fairly cheap. Good Caipirinhas too.

This is my first cachasa and I am hooked. Very smooth and light with interesting taste that goes way beyond simple silver/white rum. If you’re given a chance to try a Caprinia then ask for Leblon as you will not be disappointed.
