Review:

A calvados-based Red Hook. It has a touch of apple but a bit less bite than Vincenzo Errico's bottled-in-bond rye whiskey-based original.

History:

Created in March 2022 by yours truly after picking up a bottle of bottled-in-bond applejack when making a Red Hook rather than the intended rye whiskey. I then swapped applejack for calvados.
