Mac's Applejack

• Small batch applejack produced by Finger Lakes Distilling in Burdett, New York

• Produced using water sourced from aquifers around Seneca Lake, the deepest lake in New York
• Open top fermented
• Distilled in a 25-foot Vendome copper column still and thumper
• Apple brandy component aged 4–6 years in ex–bourbon barrels previously used to age McKenzie bourbon; non-age statement
• A full bushel of apple varieties on the nose—red apple skin, sweet yellow apple, and green apple juice—precedes a warm, creamy palate of apple pie, cinnamon, and vanilla with a hint of licorice root and strawberry jam on the finish
• NY Farm Distillery License Eligible
• Non-chill filtered; 45% ABV

Though US law stipulates that applejack—an adjunct apple brandy synonymous with the earliest American spirits—may contain as little as 20% aged or unaged apple distillate, Mac’s Applejack honors the bountiful orchard harvests of the Finger Lakes Region with a generous base of 75% 4–6-year-old apple brandy distilled from local New York table varieties and is bolstered by Finger Lakes Distilling’s own corn spirit. Try it in a Jack Rose or an American Trilogy cocktail!
