Apple Brandy
Ireland

"This brandy has an attractive caramel hue. On the nose, it reveals aromatic bruised and red apples, alongside hints of fermented apple cider and a lovely fragrance. The palate is smooth with a complex flavour profile, featuring jammy apple notes, a delightful warmth from spices like clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and a lingering, slightly bitter caramelized sweetness on the finish."

"This brandy presents a deep caramel colour and a rich, burnt fruit cake aroma. On the palate, it reveals sweet apple flavours, complemented by warming spices and a smooth, oily richness. It is well-integrated and balanced, showcasing notes of buttery toffee, nutty vanilla, and toasted hazelnut, leading to a complex, slightly warm finish."
