BARKING IRONS spirits: NEW YORK TO THE CORE

Made in New York from only the finest NY apples, Barking Irons Applejack brandies and gins are New York to the Core.

Here in New York, we produce some of the finest apples in the country - perhaps the world, and every year, Barking Irons Spirits sources from the best varieties in the state to make our products.

Distilled in the Finger Lakes and bottled in Red Hook, Brooklyn, our Applejack collection includes both barrel-aged and clear varieties that can be swapped for brown and clear spirits in a variety of traditional cocktails.

What makes our gin different? It’s apples and oranges really. Our 88-proof gin is distilled using an apple base blended with neutral spirits and a citrus-forward blend of botanicals including orange peels. We recommend it in a G&T with an orange twist.

What the Hell is Applejack?

Since America’s earliest days, apples have been prized for their spirit-making qualities. Back then, hard cider was a cleaner alternative to water, so our ancestors were making and drinking plenty. But cider wasn’t strong enough for them, so they decided to take it one step further.

Through a process known as "jacking," these innovative imbibers created a spirit known as Applejack. Thus, discovering what is often called the original American spirit. Watch the video below to learn more.
