Gwen Holt 2.5

The nose presents light citrus. The initial taste has a slight spice, ethanol, and citrus. The middle palate offers light citrus and brown sugar. The finish is heavily influenced by ethanol. Not worth it for the cost.

Sonja Santos

Quite enjoyable. The apples linger on the palate until the very end. I had to sample the Apple Brandy that supplies numerous barrels to several excellent breweries!

Brent Borges 3.5

The scent is spicy and floral with a touch of apple. The flavors mirror the nose, offering sweetness with a bit of warmth in the finish. It's acceptable.
