NOT YOUR GRANDPA'S APPLEJACK
So I've been hearing all about the new Apple Jack that Harvest Spirits was making, and decided to give it a try. I drove over to the distillery to give it a whirl.
Since colonial times, traditional applejack was made by freezing barrels of hard cider during the long winter months, then tapping and removing the alcoholic center. This was a powerful and harsh liquor, since it concentrated all of the alcohols — both good and bad. Since they carefully distill Cornelius Applejack 3 times, Harvest Spirits' version offers a smoother, more satisfying take on this American classic.
HOMEGROWN FROM TREE TO BOTTLE
Carefully distilled and rested in premium bourbon barrels, Cornelius Applejack is made from 100% Hudson Valley apples, homegrown on our 200 acre fruit farm.Each bottle is made from over 60 lbs. of fresh apples grown steps from our distillery.

It was smooth, with a great apple scent. Really smooth, really wonderful. Perfect for this time of year!
Tremendous! The folks at Harvest Spirit have done it again!!!!
so what is the deal with that stuff? their web page says its 4 times distilled? 3 times in copper and then freeze distilled? is there any freeze distilling or is it a 3x distilled apple vodka aged in barrel? I like the packaging, very cool, dying to try.
