Branchwater Description
Branchwater Black Currant Brandy is born out of a passion for history and admiration for farmers in the Hudson Valley working to revive crops that once flourished there. The black currants for this brandy were grown by Greg Quinn, who, in 2003, single-handedly reversed a ban on growing currants in the United States that had been in place since 1911. 5,000 pounds of black currant yielded 110 liters of alcohol, which equates to around 8 ½ pounds of fruit per 375ml bottle. After distillation, the currants were held in stainless steel for over a year to fully mature and express the unique aromatics and flavors of this complex fruit.
