I agree with the other comments — too sweet. I don’t hate it but I won’t be rushing to make it again.

Interesting to see a cachaça cocktail with punt e mês, we don't find this in Brazil easily.

We think that it's a bit of a mistake to use Cachaca in spirit-forward drinks such as this one, and prefer to use a dark Rum. As commenter Mike says, "The cachaca was nowhere to be found". That said, the drink does have balance, but what does it want to express? We're not sure.

This didn’t work for me. It was a bit like an orange curaçao Negroni. The cachaca was nowhere to be found. Disappointing.

Used agricole rhum in place of Cachaca and honestly I can't tell much of a difference. The drink works great though!

This has become my favourite drink over the last six months or so. I personally omit the simple syrup, as the punt e mes and curacao are plenty sweet already. The grassy freshness of the cachaca and the bitter notes compliment each other so well, I urge anyone to try this drink!

It's amazing how strongly the Cointreau comes through.

With the flavour of the Cachaca and the herbals it is great. Nicely bitter, but tempered by the sugar syrup and curacao. Perfect aperitif.
