O’Donnell Moonshine Roasted Apple Liqueur

O'Donnell Moonshine Roasted Apple is a flavoured moonshine style liqueur from the German brand O'Donnell Moonshine, which distils a clear grain spirit and bottles a wide range of flavours in mason jars that recall the bootleggers of the American Prohibition era. This expression captures the flavour of a baked apple, joining sweet apple to warm cinnamon and vanilla with a slightly nutty edge, a seasonal liqueur that reads like apple straight from the oven. It is bottled at 20%.

The nose is slightly nutty with baked apple, cinnamon and vanilla, the palate full bodied, slightly fresh and lemony with baked apple and cinnamon, finishing long on the palate. Behind the bar it brings baked apple flavour, warm cinnamon spice and a citrus lift, which makes it a natural in autumn cocktails, an apple sour or a spiced long drink lengthened with soda or sparkling wine. Pour it over ice for pure enjoyment, warm it gently in the cold season, or use a measure to add baked apple and spice to a stirred cocktail.
