Indiana Meets Jamaica! 🍎🥃 | The Orchard’s Journey Cocktail Review Can a "disruptor" bourbon create the ultimate craft cocktail? Today on Your Bourbon Journey, Rebecca takes us on an Orchard’s Journey, exploring the incredible flavors of Starlight Distillery’s 112-proof bourbon, uniquely finished in their own apple brandy casks! This cocktail is a true "funky apple sipper," blending the fruity sweetness of the Starlight bourbon with the deep, caramelized notes of their 12-year estate apple brandy. But the real surprise? The addition of Merlet Cassis for a jammy richness and Bittercube Jamaican #1 Bitters for a savory, spicy kick that will transport your palate straight to the Caribbean! 🏝️ In this video, we breakdown: The unique specs of the Starlight Apple Brandy Cask Finished Bourbon [00:13]. How the 12-year estate apple brandy transforms the cocktail’s profile [00:36]. The "secret weapon": Jamaican #1 Bitters for that savory funk [01:12]. A full tasting of the final pour (spoiler: it’s a crisp, tart, and spicy delight!) [02:23]. Stick around for the full recipe and see if this Indiana-meets-Jamaica fusion is your next favorite pour!
