RG Macon & Carson Apple Brandy
Macon & Carson Apple Brandy originated in Bentonville, AR in 1893. At one time, the distillery was the largest distillery west of the Mississippi River. In 1914 the distillery closed it's doors forever when Prohibition came to Arkansas.
In 2016 we began our journey to resurrect a part of history that has deep roots in Northwest Arkansas. Using regionally sourced Apples and distilling the spirit in Northwest Arkansas was at the core of how we wanted to resurrect this spirit. We are confident that the Macon brothers would be proud of our apple brandy.

Profile Review
"On the nose, it opens with floral
blossom, pear blossom, orange zest,
dried apples and apricots.
On the front end of the palate, is
a burst of brown sugar, caramelized
apples with a hint of warm, salty,
crust in the middle and allspice
on the backend like a fried apple
pie explosion.
This has a medium finish of aged,
Arkansas Black Apples and
sweet warm spice."
