Apple wood
The woods
A mild fruitwood smoke for a lighter finish. Candied Apple is a good starting point with whiskey cocktails.

A softer finish for your pour
Try Candied Apple in an Old Fashioned or alongside aged rum over ice. Start with a small pinch and a brief infusion, then take in the aroma before you sip.
Try Apple with
- A bourbon Old Fashioned with an orange twist.
- Aged rum over a large ice cube.
- A citrus cocktail when you want a gentle smoke.
Make the comparison
Candied Apple is 1 of the 6 woods in your kit. Use it with a familiar drink, then try Heritage Oak with the same recipe on your next pour. Keep the amount of chips and infusion time the same to compare the finish.
Use a small pinch
Place the barrel horizontally on the disc over your glass. Lift off the upper half, spread a few chips over the screen and light them with the butane torch. Remove the flame once they smoulder. Keep the remaining chips dry and close the tin after use.
