The Original American Spirit, Bottled for America's 250th Anniversary.
Every figure on this bottle is a line back to the founding:
1,300 BOTTLES: One hundred bottles for each of the thirteen original colonies. A finite tribute to the thirteen states that became a nation.
56% ABV
One percentage point for each of the fifty-six signers of the Declaration. The men who put their names, fortunes, and lives to a single piece of parchment.
13 YEARS: Thirteen years in oak, one for each of the thirteen colonies. An apple brandy that has taken its time, the way the country took its time to become itself.
250 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE: Two hundred and fifty years of American independence. Ten generations of a single family still distilling the spirit that helped build it.
Laid down in 2013 and rested thirteen years in once-used bourbon barrels. Bottled at 56% ABV — the strength chosen so the fruit could lead.
Tasting Notes:
Nose:Crisp apple and pear, the faintest breath of oak, vanilla and caramel coming in soft behind.
Palate: Floral honey across the front, apple and pear in balance, a warm vanilla spice settling underneath.
Finish: Slow, woody, long. The orchard has the last word.
