About this product

Authentic Brazilian Spirit with Character and Tradition.
Velho Barreiro Cachaça is one of Brazil’s most celebrated spirits, a true embodiment of the country’s rich sugarcane heritage. Crafted from freshly pressed sugarcane juice and distilled with care, it delivers a vibrant, aromatic profile that is both lively and approachable. With a history dating back to the 19th century, Velho Barreiro is a cachaça that balances tradition with consistency, offering an authentic taste of Brazil in every bottle.

Unlike neutral spirits, this cachaça carries the essence of sugarcane, with hints of fresh vegetal brightness, subtle floral notes, and a warm, slightly sweet backbone. Its smoothness and versatility make it ideal for classic Brazilian cocktails like the Caipirinha, yet it is also perfectly enjoyable neat or on the rocks for those who want to appreciate its character fully.

For Irish cocktail enthusiasts and spirits collectors, Velho Barreiro Cachaça is an invitation to explore a world beyond rum, offering tropical freshness, vibrant energy, and a taste of Brazilian culture that is immediately recognizable. It’s a spirited companion for parties, relaxed evenings, or creative mixology.

Why we love it:
Velho Barreiro is beloved for its balance of authenticity, smoothness, and aromatic complexity. The fresh sugarcane notes are lively yet controlled, making it a highly versatile spirit. Whether you’re shaking up a classic Caipirinha, mixing with tropical juices, or sipping it neat, it delivers flavour and personality in every pour.
