A Taste of Georgia’s Apple Country
Applejay from Ellijay is an apple liqueur born in the heart of Georgia’s apple country. Crafted in small batches in East Ellijay, it brings together the different sides of apple—sweet, tart, and gently bitter—for a balanced expression of the fruit.
Apple can be surprisingly delicate in spirits. Rather than covering that character with excessive sweetness, Applejay builds layers of apple flavor, enhanced with apple distillate to create a liqueur that is bright, rounded, and distinctly apple.
And the name could only come from here: Apple + Ellijay = Applejay.
From the orchards and mountains of North Georgia comes a modern American liqueur with a strong sense of place—made for sipping on the rocks, pairing with cheese, or bringing balance and apple character to a cocktail.
Carefully Crafted, Georgia Proud
Recognized on the global stage with awards like the New York World Spirits Competition, Applejay from Ellijay stays true to its homegrown origins. Whether enjoyed simply on the rocks, alongside a good meal, or mixed into cocktails like the Appletini, Georgia Iced Tea, or Applejay Mule, it brings a refreshing, authentic Southern character to every pour.
Distinctively. Crisp. Georgia proud. Applejay from Ellijay — a spirit as real as the mountains it comes from.
