I made too much cider this fall ;-), so plan to downsize by trying my first batch of apple jack.
In my personal experience, aging cider 6-18 months really helps (!). With apple jack, can I jack and then age, or should I age and then jack?
I don't know if some of the magic that occurs during cider aging would be suppressed with the higher ABV of apple jack. Then again, apple jack may be so potent that the subtleties of aging will be lost.
