What is Avuá Falernum?
Avuá Falernum puts a Brazilian twist on the classic Caribbean liqueur, blending cachaça with native ingredients like brazil nuts and rapadura sugar. Interestingly, this unique spirit was created by Chad Austin, a renowned Los Angeles tiki bartender who spent months researching and experimenting to capture the essence of Brazil in a bottle.
Why do we love Avuá Falernum?
Cocktail enthusiasts will appreciate Avuá Falernum's unique Brazilian twist on the classic spiced modifier, featuring native ingredients like Brazil nuts and rapadura sugar alongside Avuá cachaça. This innovative blend, crafted by renowned tiki bartender Chad Austin, offers a distinctive flavor profile that sets it apart from traditional rum-based falernums, making it a versatile and exciting addition to tiki drinks, stirred cocktails, and refreshing highballs alike.
How do you drink Avuá Falernum?
Avuá Falernum shines in tropical tiki-style cocktails, adding complexity and a Brazilian twist to rum-based drinks, but it's equally at home in stirred spirit-forward concoctions or as part of a refreshing highball. Its spicy-sweet profile makes it a perfect sipper for warm summer evenings, pairing beautifully with grilled seafood or spicy Latin American cuisine.
Nose: Aromatic spices dominate, with star anise taking center stage. Fresh citrus zest mingles with the nutty richness of Brazil nuts and almonds. Hints of woody sweetness from the Amburana-aged cachaça peek through.
Palate: Smooth and lively. The spice notes carry forward, accompanied by a pronounced nuttiness. The rapadura sugar adds a molasses-like sweetness, balancing the drier spice elements. The cachaça base provides a subtle grassy undertone, adding complexity.
Finish: Medium-long and warming. The star anise lingers, accompanied by a gentle sweetness. Nutty flavors fade slowly, leaving a pleasant, slightly oily mouthfeel. A whisper of cachaça's characteristic vegetal notes appears at the very end.
Avuá Falernum is crafted by blending Avuá Still Strength and Amburana cachaças with a unique mix of Brazilian and Chilean nuts, star anise, and rapadura sugar. This innovative recipe, developed by renowned tiki bartender Chad Austin, captures the essence of Brazil's flavors while staying true to falernum's traditional spiced profile.
