Amburana - Infusion Oak Spiral

Amburana (Amburana caerensis) is also known as Brazilian oak, named after the country from which the majority of Amburana trees are grown. It is a wood commonly associated with the aging of a Brazilian spirit, Cachaça, a sugarcane spirit similar to rum. Amburana tends to reduce acidity in a beverage, highlighting more beverage flavor while contributing its own sweet and savory flavors of gingerbread and vanilla. There are also herbal notes of thyme that may be detected.
