FAQs For Pocketful Of Stones Cider Brandy

How is this cider brandy made?

This cider brandy begins with locally sourced Cornish apples, fermented and distilled twice in the distillery’s copper pot still, Jackson. Double distillation enhances purity and texture while preserving the orchard‑fresh character of the fruit.

The spirit is then matured in a variety of oak casks by the sea, where coastal humidity and temperature shifts influence its development. This maritime ageing adds depth, softens the edges and contributes subtle layers of toffee, spice and warm oak.

How should I store this fruit brandy?

Store upright in a cool, dark place. Brandy remains stable after opening, but avoiding heat and light preserves its orchard‑fresh aromatics.

How should I serve this brandy?

Enjoy neat at room. Or slightly warmed in the hand in a small brandy glass. Occasionally over a large ice cube for a lighter serve.

Is it sweet or dry?

It is naturally fruity and gently sweet, with a balanced profile rather than heavy sweetness.
