Laird's Applejack Brandy is a historic American spirit produced by Laird & Company, the oldest licensed distillery in the United States, founded in 1698. The standard Laird's Applejack is a blend of 35% aged apple brandy and 65% neutral grain spirits, resulting in a smooth, approachable profile with rich apple flavor and subtle caramel notes. For a more robust experience, Laird's Straight Apple Brandy Bottled in Bond is a 100% apple brandy aged for a minimum of four years in charred oak barrels and bottled at 100 proof, offering deeper apple and spice characteristics . Tasting notes for the blended version include a crisp apple aroma with hints of oak and vanilla, light caramel, and a touch of cinnamon spice, providing a warm and smooth finish . Laird's Applejack is versatile in cocktails, commonly used in classics like the Jack Rose, Applejack Old-Fashioned, and Applejack Sour, thanks to its unique apple-forward profile and smooth texture.
