Branchwater Bartlett Pear Brandy 375ml

Branchwater Farms is an integrated, multiuse farm in the heart of the Hudson Valley of New York. At our farm, we grow small grains from heritage varieties for the purpose of distillation by way of organic and regenerative agriculture.

Our two 330L copper pot stills were designed by Austrian master distiller, Hans Reisetbauer, and fabricated by Christian Carl, the oldest distillery producer in Germany. Hans is an old friend of Kevin’s and our consultant as well.

The inaugural release of Branchwater Pear Brandy comes from Bartlett pears grown in the Hudson Valley. Five tons of pears were hand-sorted and cleaned for quality, then crushed, fermented and distilled. This yielded 1,000 half bottles, which translates to 10 pounds of pears in each 375ml bottle. The resulting brandy evokes the sensation of biting into a perfectly ripe pear.
