It has to be tried.
My guests love it, in all it's various forms.

Apple Pie does not need to be limited to the winter season. Year in and year out it remains my biggest seller ~ and I live in the tropics. There is no winter here.

Give it a shot if you have not already done so.

I will second that, especially at this time of year, in this part of the world.
It just "fits".

My first batch I used cloudy apple, brown sugar, and 3 very small cinnamon sticks. After making it up to around 18% (for my first try) we both tried it.. ???

Second try I used clear apple, brown sugar, neutral, and only 2 small cinnamon sticks. With an hydro I adjusted the % ???

Both recipes came to the boil then down to a simmer for 30mins, what they'll turn out like after sitting about for a week or two who knows???

It seems to be, as can be expected..down to ones taste buds....so after my very small trial all I can suggest is, if you've never made apple pie shine..have a go and try it...

Now I'm going to make it RJ's way with the rum in the pan, but also another batch with the grog added at the end.

Then I can make up my own mind (with the help of the swmbo) which we prefer. ;)

I try to lose higher alcohols from everything that I distill.
Because everything tastes better after.
OK, as I wrote that, the penny dropped.
YOU do not filter spirit, therefore your treatment of it in making Apple pie takes care of the most part.
Simple, isn't it?

Cheers,
Robert.

Having said that, I have tried just cooking the apple juice, cinnamon and sugar, then adding the alcohol. Its not the same. Similar to not cooking a spaghetti sauce, I suppose.
