Appearance: A little darker than straw, the color of apple juice coincidentally enough.Nose: Bright, ripe, fresh apples.
Taste: Baked apple, Mott's apple juice, some oak spice and a lot of creamy vanilla on the finish. That vanilla finish lingers and is really, really nice.
Conclusion: Laird's is no longer bonded meaning that it is no longer all four year old brandy. This is rumored to be a mostly four year brandy with some three and five year barrels in the mix. Whatever it's a mix of it's full of really clean, juicy apple flavor and is very, very good. I always keep a bottle of this around. It's refreshing and a nice change of pace from grape brandies every now and then.
