To create a truly unique apple brandy we start by picking, grinding and pressing apples from our apple orchard to create a distinctive apple juice blend from over 120 varieties of cider apples and other apples in our apple orchard.
Then we allow the apple juice to ferment naturally (without the addition of any yeast or other additives) for six to twelve months (a classic technique in the Normandy region of France to create Calvados).
Then we distill the fermented apple juice (or hard cider) twice in our Alembic Charentais Pot Still to produce a high proof spirit that is ready to age.
Then we age our apple brandy for at least one year in new oak barrels and then age it in premium used Madeira barrels to create a smooth finish that highlights our apples.
