Pirassununga Cachaca 51

Pirassununga Cachaca is Brazil's potent cachaca liquor distilled from fermented sugar-cane juice (While rum is distilled from molasses, cachaca is distilled directly from the juice of the unrefined sugar cane.) Prior to distillation the juice ferments in a wood or copper container for three weeks and is then boiled down three times to a concentrate. Cachaca is always distilled in such a way that the scent of sugar cane and inimitable flavor typical of rum are retained.
