Interestingly, this brandy is made using the traditional "freeze distillation" method, also called "jacking," where hard cider is left to freeze in the cold winter months, allowing distillers to separate the alcohol from the ice - a technique that dates back to colonial America and was favored by none other than George Washington himself.
