Mark Tafoya of ReMARKable Palate and the Culinary Media Network is featuring cachaça (particularly Sagatiba) in a big way this week.
Check out this excellent 45-minute interview (MP3) with Jared Brown and Anastatia Miller, husband-and-wife directors of the Exposition Universelle des Vins et Spiritueux and authors of the book Cachaça: The Soul Of Brazil. The guests, along with Mark, do an excellent job of dispelling a number of myths about cachaça and even explain how the caipirinha owes some of its origins to the Napoleonic Wars. (Certainly news to your humble editor.)
Enjoy Sagatiba's cocktail tutorial below, also supplied by Mark.
Now... Where can I buy this book?
