Created in VERY small batches, our Artisan Series Brandies strive to capture the essence of the fruit.
These fruit Brandies are not sweet! Bottled at 80 proof, they are commonly enjoyed before or after a meal.
Bottled in 375ml bottles with labels painted by distiller Doug MacKenzie's mother, artist Claire MacKenzie. |

Grappa
Grappa is a brandy made from pomace (the solid remains of the wine making process).
Our Grappa is made from a pomace consisting of Marechal Foch and Millot grapes grown in Wisconsin.
Grappa is typically enjoyed after a meal. A common way it is drunk in Italy is in espresso. This is known as a "caffe corretto" or corrected coffee. |

Kirschwasser
Kirschwasser is distilled from Cherries. Our's is distilled from a cherry wine produced at Wisconsin's AEppelTreow Winery.
Usually drunk neat, and often served before a meal. Although some cocktails (Singapore Sling, Rose) use Kirschwasser as an ingredient. |
Pear Brandy Eau-de-Vie
Eau de vie is French for "water of life". Our Pear Brandy tastes like you just cut a pear. It has a great aroma and terrific flavor of fresh Bartlett pear.
Made from Pear Wine produced at Wisconsin's AEppelTreow Winery.
Try it chilled after a meal. It makes a great dessert! |
