Cachaça Carvalho Gold is a traditional Brazilian spirit distilled from freshly pressed sugarcane juice, not molasses—making it closer in style to agricole rum. After distillation, it’s aged in Carvalho (Brazilian oak) casks, which impart warmth, softness, and subtle spice. This gold or "amarela" style cachaça sits between freshness and richness, bridging the gap between white cachaça and more robust aged expressions. A perfect starting point for both sipping and mixing.
Bouquet Aromatic and inviting with notes of warm sugarcane, vanilla, sweet spice and toasted almond. Hints of honeyed wood, white pepper and tropical fruit drift through the glass.
Palate Smooth and balanced. Flavours of soft caramel, oak spice, and fresh sugarcane are joined by a gentle herbal note and a slightly nutty, creamy finish. The oak ageing adds elegance and depth, without overpowering the spirit’s natural freshness.
Food Pairing Perfect in a more elevated Caipirinha, or try it neat or with a splash of soda. Great alongside grilled meats, charred pineapple, or Brazilian classics like feijoada and pão de queijo.
Cellaring Best enjoyed fresh for its clean sugarcane character, but the oak influence will keep it stable for 2–3 years once opened.
Interesting Fact In Brazil, cachaça is enjoyed by millions daily, with over 4,000 registered distilleries. Carvalho Gold represents the refined end of the spectrum—a step up from mixing cachaça, and a glimpse into Brazil’s rich artisanal spirit tradition.
