Singer-songwriter, Georgette Jones, daughter of Country Music Hall of Famers Tammy Wynette and George Jones, has launched, Apple Sin, an apple/cinnamon flavored whiskey bottled at 72 proof. The recipe was created by Kentucky Master Distiller, R. Spencer Balentine using his great grandfather’s base whiskey recipe orginating in 1920. Not only is Apple Sin a deliciously smooth drink, but could also be used as a baste for meats, apple pie filling, or even poured over ice cream.
Georgette Jones Apple Sin Whiskey won the award for top Apple/Cinnamon whiskey in the 2021 SIP Awards. This honor marks the first time in competition history that a daughter has followed her father’s Gold Medal win for her own whiskey brand. Her father, George Jones, had won the prestigious Gold Medal in 2016 for the same category.
