aguardente bagaceira
Aguardente bagaceira is a traditional Portuguese spirit made from the pomace of grapes, which includes the skins, seeds, and stems left over after winemaking. It is typically distilled in small batches and has a high alcohol content, often ranging from 30% to 60%. Bagaceira is known for its strong flavor and is sometimes flavored with fruits or herbs.
This drink has deep cultural roots in Portugal, particularly in the Dão and Alentejo regions, where it is often enjoyed as a digestif. It is commonly served in small glasses and can be sipped neat or used in cocktails.
