- Description
- Abingdon Distillery's apple brandy captures Oxfordshire terroir, made entirely from hand-picked waste apples sourced from disused local orchards within a 10-mile radius. A blend of 16 apple varieties—including 20% cooking apples, 70% dessert varieties, and 10% late harvest—aged for at least 12 months in ex-Speyside whisky casks creates complexity: crisp green apple upfront, followed by apple crumble sweetness and toffee notes. The result is a small-batch spirit that honours both local agriculture and traditional fruit distilling methods. Serve neat or in long drinks to appreciate the interplay of sharp and sweet.
