A pure distillation of Bartlett pears, crushed whole and fermented on the skins. We source our pears as locally as possible from farms such as Fix Brothers Fruit Farm and Yonder Farm.
Minimally distilled twice to retain the fresh pear aromas, it is surprisingly dry with a long toasted oak finish, reminiscent of a proper European style of brandy at 40% ABV.
Aged 2 years in charred American oak barrels with a single filtration. Enjoy our Rare Pear Brandy neat in a brandy snifter or on the rocks to appreciate the aromas.
No charcoal filtration, no sugar, no additives. 100% Pears.
cherry applejack
Years in the making, Cornelius Cherry is made by soaking sweet Bing cherries in our 3-year old Applejack, bringing it down to 35% ABV, then aging an extra year in quarter casks. We source our cherries directly from the grower New York's Niagara region.
Rich black fruit flavors blend into toasted oak and a slightly spiced finish, thanks to the 4 years that went into it, with a robust body that is thick, but not viscous. Excellent in Manhattans and Old Fashions as a replacement for sweet vermouth.
No charcoal filtration, no sugar, no cherry flavoring. 100% Cherries & Apples.
Peach Applejack
Our double-barrel aged Cornelius Peach is made from fresh picked peaches and nectarines, hand crushed and macerated in our Applejack. A year of soaking and marrying the flavors, and it's filtered and put back into barrels for aging at 30% ABV.
This sweeter brandy gets its full bodied flavor from honest stone fruit with rich flavors of spice and oak from 3 years of total barrel aging. A true fruit spirit. Enjoy with tonic and lime or blend into a Cosmopolitan.
Some natural fruit sediment may occur.
No charcoal filtration, no sugar, no additives. 100% Peaches & Apples.
