BOURBON BARREL AGED POMMEAU

POMMEAU

Bourbon Barrel Aged Pommeau is extremely rare and hand crafted in small batches. It starts off its journey as local organic fresh pressed Winesap apples, fermented and cellar aged. We then have it distilled by Peach St. Distillery in Palisade CO. turning it into an apple Eau De Vie. On its return we carefully blend it with fresh organic apple juice and a touch of hard cider. It’s then left to rest in used bourbon barrels for 12 months. The results are a one of a kind artisan style apple wine brandy. Sporting an enticing apple and bourbon nose, combined with the flavors of vanilla and smoke this slow sipper will charm just about any pallet.
