| | Applejack - Homedistiller (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04) |
 | | It is made by concentrating "hard cider" (as British cider, i.e, fermented apple juice, is called in American usage), either by the traditional method of so-called "freeze distillation", or by true evaporative distillation. |
 | | The term "applejack" derives "jacking", used as a term for freeze distillation. |
 | | From the fermented juice, with less that 10% alcohol content, the concentrated result has about or 30 to 40 percent alcohol (i.e., 60 to 80 proof), is slightly sweet, and tastes and usually smells of apples. |
