Aguardiente- Introduction A typical Colombian Aguardiente is usually clear anise or licorice-flavored alcohol that is also known as Guaro. This aguardiente contains around 29% of alcohol. Traditionally, people in Colombia always celebrate even a simple occasion also with a bottle of Aguardiente spirit. This drink is also called Firewater and that too for obvious reasons: Well, Aguardiente is a Mashup of words “Agua” that is water and “ardiente” which means burning, which is the direct translation of the English term, “Firewater”.

It is very rare to buy an aguardiente bottle and not finish it in that single night. As per the Cumbe, the best aguardiente manufacturing brand in Miami, the aguardiente is manufactured by fermenting the sugarcane liquid and then distill it around 7 times, and a bespoke mixture of the 96% ABV spirit is created along with the glacier water and anise extract.
