TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: A powerful and complex nose, marked by delicate woody notes enriched with hints of caramelized vanilla and coconut powder, characteristic of American oak. Fresh floral tones unfold, accompanied by dried tobacco and balsamic accents of coffee and chocolate.

Brazil is very famous for being one of the largest producers of cacao and coffee in the world. It was natural for us to associate these notes with our Gran Chaco Brazil Rum. The design of the bottle was inspired by Brazilian wildlife: the patterns represent some of Brazil's most emblematic animals.
