Distilled in 1982, Sagatiba Preciosa was matured in 19th century European oak barrels until its discovery in 2004 when it was filtered & purified according to the highest quality standards to ensure its original characteristics, such as aroma & flavour, would be preserved. Chicagos Beverage Testing Institute, the worlds foremost alcoholic beverage analysis institute, described Preciosa as an elegant & poised aged cane spirit with a great balance subtlety, power, & finesse, & awarded it 96 out of 100 points; making it the only cachaca in the world in the Superlative Category of 96 points & over. The announcement of the limited release comes one year after five individually numbered bottles of Sagatiba Preciosa were sold for just under £2, 500 in an auction of finest & rarest wines & spirits at Christies world famous auction rooms. Lucas Rodas, Sagatiba International Director commented: Sagatiba Preciosa is unlike any cachaca ever made before, & there will probably never be a cachaca like it again. Unique circumstances brought together raw cachaca of unprecedented maturity with our advanced distillation methods to create arguably the greatest cachaca ever produced. Today, we are proud to bring Preciosa to the UK & we welcome those lucky enough to experience its luxury & savour the very essence of Brasil. Literally translated to The Infinite Saga, Sagatiba means the never-ending search for purity, quality & flavour through the manufacture of the highest quality sugar cane spirits. Sagatiba international Headquarters are located in Sao Paulo, Brasil Our brand is unlike any other. Its the result of a shared vision, an idea that an exceptionally pure Cachaca could be enjoyed throughout the world & in that way offer everybody a taste of the pure spirit of Brasil
