The Laird family has produced applejack in New Jersey since 1698, and the first commercial transaction was recorded in the family ledger in 1780. Laird \u0026amp; Company remains America's oldest family-run distillery, bottling in Scobeyville, New Jersey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo meet demand for lighter, lower proof spirits, the Laird family created the blended applejack category in 1972. Best described today as an apple whiskey, Laird's Applejack blends aged apple brandy with neutral grain spirits. The aged apple brandy base gives it a rich, deep flavor and smooth balance while keeping the delicate aroma of tree-ripened apples.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect baked apple and light oak on the nose, a smooth palate of ripe apple, caramel and vanilla, and a clean, gently warming finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaird's Applejack imparts its delightful apple flavor to mixed cocktails, punches and culinary recipes, and its versatility is boundless. Shake a classic Jack Rose with lemon and grenadine, stir an Applejack Old Fashioned with maple syrup and bitters, or mix it with ginger ale or hot cider for an easy fall drink. It also adds depth to a Stone Fence with hard cider, a holiday punch, or a pan sauce for pork chops. Pair it with roast pork, sharp cheddar, apple pie or gingerbread. With more than three centuries of family history behind it, Laird's Applejack is a true piece of Americana and a great gift for cocktail lovers and history buffs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Baked apple, light oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ripe apple, caramel, vanilla.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clean and gently warming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Laird \u0026amp; Company, Scobeyville, New Jersey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blended applejack (aged apple brandy and neutral grain spirits)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFamily distilling since:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1698\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShake a Jack Rose, or mix it with hot cider.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is applejack?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA blend of aged apple brandy and neutral grain spirits, often called America's first spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho makes it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaird \u0026amp; Company, America's oldest family-run distillers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow strong is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e80 proof (40% ABV).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cognac\"\u003eCognac \u0026amp; Brandy collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Laird \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68083145441589,"sku":"VWS200428258","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-33822.webp?v=1793992779","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/lairds-applejack-smooth-blend-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
