Aguardiente

I go to see my family in Colombia.

And when I'm there, like, I remember one day, two years ago, I went to visit my family and when I got in the backseat of the car, um, my 16 year old cousin was in the back with me and she pulled out a little taza of Aguardiente, which is a kind of like rum offshoot.

And she passed it over to me.

And my six year old cousin and me took a, took a shot of rum in the backseat of a car.

The Caldo comes in at 104.6 proof.

Orlando Vasquez comes from a family of Panela, which is unrefined sugar makers, and began distilling Aguardiente in 2015.

He uses fresh juice, the Caldo, in quotes.

from two high-sugar, fast-growing varieties, 290 and CP421, for you botanists out there, and distills on a wood-fired four-plate continuous copper still.

Even my dad has been helping my fiance fix up his truck.

I've had to pick him up more than once because my mom stuffs him and my dad gets him loaded on Aguardiente.

Everyone we have ever traded with has provided fair exchange.

I have done my sister's accounting since she started her wedding planning company.

Aguardiente, sí señor.

Es caliente como el ron.

Aguardente, sí señor.

Caliente como el ron.

Muchos suelen chuparle el rabo a la justia, muchos suelen chuparle el rabo a la justia y gustan de tomar aguardiente de caña.
