Pitu Light Cachaca

It smells like Cachaca, which might be an acquired taste for some. The flavor definitely surprised me though... Very mild and clean, almost like they were trying to make vodka, but some of the funk got through. Its not entirely bad, though I tend to treat it like a weird vodka, with very faint vegetal and mineral notes. For very mild Caipirinhas.

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

I have a very old love affair with Brazil and cachaça was my introduction to sugar cane spirits. So: two points for the souvenirs – pleasure is multidimensional also when sipping/drinking (with Pitú stick with caipirinha and basic mixings) – plus two points because this is a good one when explaining to your friends the difference between cachaça, molasses rum, “agricole”… Pitú is very, very cachaça even if not a good one.

NB: I am not a specialist. It just happens that I like rum.

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

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.

In mixed drinks only... There is no drinking experience...

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