Copper & Kings "Floodwall" Apple Brandy (750ml)

The new Floodwall release of the Copper & Kings apple brandy series may be the Louisville distillery's boldest move thus far. Using a heavy proportion of sherry cask maturation, the brandy takes on a heavy, Oloroso-filled single malt character more reminiscent of Glendronach or Macallan than Calvados. The finish, however, is where the pure and crisp apple flavor breaks free from the rich and textural Sherry element and comes shining through with finesse and classic character. This is fantastic crossover bottle for whisky drinkers who are curious about brandies, but not quite sure they want to give up their beloved Speyside flavor. It's the richness apple brandy we've ever tasted and it's a fantastic new addition to the C&K line-up.
