I originally discovered Laird’s 12 Year Old Apple Brandy at the Freehold, New Jersey, Sam’s Club. The bottle intrigued me and the price was right at $45.00. One taste and I was hooked. I would drive from my home outside of Atlantic City all the way to Freehold just to buy three or four bottles at a time. I now live 25 miles outside of Boise, Idaho, and have discovered Laird’s 100 proof Apple Brandy. Wow. I purchased an entire case and have introduced Idahoans to a taste of historic New Jersey. I’ve come to cherish my Treasure Valley sunsets near the Owyhee mountains, a good cigar and three to four of my best friends sipping Laird’s 100 Proof Apple brandy. What could be better? Maybe those same friends experiencing the same enjoyment at the Jersey Shore for a five day vacation. Laird’s has new loyal customers from the Pacific Northwest.

Having heard lore about Applejack, recently turned 21, and seen this beautiful bottle sitting in a local store, I am now the proud owner of a 750 mL bottle. I have a taste for bourbon, but I have to say, I like this. Tastes smooth and sweet, has that nice oak barrel flavor. Heck, I just mixed up a little splash of sugar water and tossed it in, and I like that even better. Packaging may have quite a bit to do with snagging new customers, and the bottle sure didn’t scare me away. I think I’ll be asking for a special order on that 7 1/2 Year old Apple Brandy tomorrow.

Hi folks,
I am thilled to see all of the die hard Apple Jack enthusiasts!
I am the national key account manager for Laird and Company. I hope I can answer some of the questions I have seen poseted.
If you are looking for the original recipe try the 7 and 1/2 year old Apple Brandy from Laird’s or if you are more adventurous, the 100 proof botled in bond product. The 12 yr old Apple Brandy has recieved a 90-95 pt rating from the wine enthusiast. All of the Apple products are outstanding. They are all excellent to cook with.
Apple Jack as we now know it was developed in the early 70’s to be more mixable in old fashion’s and other drinks. It is quite a good product.
please visit our website at http://www.lairdandcompany.com and feel free to ask for me!

100 proof bottled in bond straight apple brandy is the real thing. Black label Lairds is not easy to get even in Jersey, but it’s available.
big difference between applejack and b. in b.

Hi
I’m also searching for Laird’s-I’ve already purchased the charred oak keg from http://www.baar.com
Hope the brandy hasn’t changed in quality and still will work as Cayce recommended
Hope this helps -:)

Have heard of Apple brandy for years but never took the time to find it…until now. We have many a family hay ride in the fall, and our spiked cider is a hit. Spiked it this year with whiskey in one barrel, and apple brandy(jack) in the other…both were awesome on a cold ride! Thanks for other recipe’s…will give em a try.
