Leblon Cachaca Rum

Leblon Cachaça

The Spirit of Brazil

Brazil’s caipirinha may well be the next superstar cocktail, and Cachaça is the star ingredient—a rum-like spirit made from sugar cane. Leblon, aged in casks that once held Cognac, tastes smoother than most—so smooth it can be sipped straight or used in place of rum and vodka in many other cocktails.

Price: $30
