Light gold color. Exotic, attractive aromas and flavors of fallen fruit, vanilla bean, black tea, and fresh wood, chai, and floral notes with a full body and a long finish that shows notes of baked apples, cinnamon, and vanilla, caramel apple, and chocolate covered apricots. An after-dinner Brandy full of warm fruit and spices; specific to a mood, but a mood it is.

Fruit Brandy is the default term for all Brandies that are made from fermenting fruit other than grapes. Fruit Brandies, except those made from berries, are generally distilled from fruit wines. Berries tend to lack enough sugar to make a wine with sufficient alcohol for proper distillation, and thus are soaked (macerated) in high-proof spirit to extract their flavor and aroma. The extract is then distilled once at a low proof.
