Abelha means \u2018bee\u2019 in Portuguese and the striking label offers a swarm of them on this bottle of Abelha Organic Cacha\u00e7a. It speaks to one of summer days, nature, wholesome pleasures, and all of those happen to be found in Brazil from where this characterful spirit hails.<\/p>\n
Cacha\u00e7a is a popular spirit which some describe as a white rum. Compare Abelha Organic Cacha\u00e7a with the more predictable white rum from, perhaps, Puerto Rico, and one can see why Brazilians are so keen to promote this as something different. This is a delightfully complex spirit and it deserves a wider audience.<\/p>\n
Cacha\u00e7a is a spirit distilled from cane juice. The cane grows 100% organically in the national park of Chapada Diamantina in Bahia, Northern Brazil. It is made in small batches and distilled in traditional copper pot stills which allow for the production of interesting spirits. Abelha Organic Cacha\u00e7a has a full exotic fruit nose, fresh sugar cane sweetness and fruity taste, and a silky finish. It is warming, smooth and mouth-filling and it would be a shame to mask its character with cola. Please don\u2019t do that.<\/p>\n
