Would I buy a bottle? Not sure on cost but probably
Thoughts: Unmistakably cane, I think it mostly hits what it was going for. Granted, I haven’t had tons of cachaca, but the ones I had felt a bit more delicate and stronger in grass flavor, where this had a bit more umf and backbone to it, if that makes sense. It falls off a bit on flavor and finish, but it is definitely interesting.
