AMOCI Discovers Delicana Cachaça

Tiare over at A Mountain Of Crushed Ice appears to have quite a find on her hands: Delicana Cachaça.

Delicana Cachaça is a pure natural product without chemical additives, produced in Minas Gerais and there are four different types of this artisanal cachaca (silver, gold, premium and cinnamon- orange liqueur/ spiced)...

The silver cachaça is stored several months in jequitiba barrels and its pleasantly mild and flavorful. The gold cachaça is stored in oak barrels and has a more sturdy flavor with more bite as well. It has a vanilla tone and the color is beautifully golden, this one is also very mild. Both the silver and the gold cachaças are 38% ABV or 76 proof.

She also has two recipes to share: The Golden Spiced Caipirinha and the Pinapple Tiki Batida.

About Cachaçagora

  • Hi. My name is Phil Gomes. By day, I work at a public relations firm as its senior vice president of digital integration. I'm a proud SF East Bay native who currently lives in Chicago.

    I was introduced to cachaça by my wife, a Carioca. Her mom, in turn, is the president of the Confraria de Cachaça do Copo Furado, a group that meets monthly to talk about Brazil's indigenous spirit. I participated in one of their meetings when I vacationed in Rio in July 2008.

    This started me thinking about the basic question of whether cachaça in the U.S. is today where, say, tequila was some decades ago.

    So I decided to start this blog as a means to record and share the cachaça-related items I've been seeing day-to-day. I hope to be sharing recipes, impressions, and random thoughts as the U.S. continues to catch on to the potential for this particular spirit.

    Oh... The name? "Cachaçagora" is a portmanteau of "Cachaça" and "agora", which is the Portuguese word for "now". In Greek, "agora" also means public square. I hope to meet the expectations of both.

    Saúde!
