Our Spirits

We are—in our hearts, minds, and daily practices—brandy makers.

Everything we do is with the aim of making exceptional brandy. This requires time. Lots of time.

We use a combination of estate-grown fruit as well as apples, grapes and other fruits grown by trusted local partners. As our vineyards and orchards mature, our production will shift to using majority estate-grown fruit.

Our flagship, aged apple and grape brandies are distilled on our 2500-liter Alembic Charentais pot still, imported from Cognac. The distillate is then aged in 400-liter French oak barrels in our chai (our barrel warehouse).

We also make un-oaked eaux de vies from a variety of fruits grown by our orchard-partners. These exquisite spirits are distilled on our bespoke 500-liter copper pot still manufactured in Oberkirch, Germany by the Muller family.

While we wait for our brandies to age and our eau de vies to rest, we are excited to share Brevis White and Sweet Red Vermouths. Vermouth is a category of aromatized and fortified wine that is traditionally used in cocktails. Our recipes were developed to play nicely in mixed drinks but to also be delicious on their own.

Purchase

Brevis White Vermouth

A refreshing, versatile, fortified wine that’s been infused with a rich blend of botanicals like wormwood, Angelica, and Gentian. Like it’s sister, the Red Vermouth, this mixes well into cocktails (see our Appletini), but we suggest sipping it simply: on the rocks with a twist of lemon. Purchase online or find it at a local retailer, below.
Brevis Sweet Red Vermouth

Nuanced and complex, Brevis Red has aromas of orange peel, baking spice, and vanilla. Sure, you can mix this into your favorite Negroni or Manhattan, but we suggest sipping it on the rocks with a twist of lemon. Purchase online or find it at a local retailer, below.
