For those who prefer an “Appletini” that doesn’t conjure a Jolly Rancher,
Harvest Spirits’ Core Apple Vodka is produced from real Hudson Valley apples (not potatoes or corn), and the flavor is far more delicate and subtle than most apple-infused spirits on the market.

Small-batch production began this spring when Derek Grout of Golden Harvest Orchards, opted to opted to make more than just cider and donuts with the farm’s nearly limitless supply of apples. In a three week-long process, apple cider is first fermented with yeast to yield hard cider, which is then triple-distilled down to pure alcohol before being diluted with water and bottled. Although 20 gallons of apple cider are distilled down to one 750ml bottle of vodka, the flavor profile is deceptively un-apple-like.

Under the label Harvest Spirits, New York state’s only farm-class distillery, Grout plans to release more apple-based spirits in the next few years, including gin, schnapps and brandy.

Each bottle of Core Vodka includes a small handwritten sticker on the front indicating its batch number. Since quantities are limited, stock up for holiday gifting. Core is available from Brooklyn’s
The Greene Grape for . For a list of availability, check out the

Last July, we took a look at whether or not ultra widescreen HDTVs could eventually become a reality. Fast forward half a year and change, and here we have Philips answering that with a resounding “sure, why not?” The Cinema 21:9 is said to be the planet’s first cinema-proportioned LCD TV, and of course, it’ll also incorporate Ambilight technology around the borders. We’ll be frank — we had our doubts upon seeing the lackluster website linked below that this thing was even real, but Philips itself confirmed to us that the panel will be shipping this Spring in Germany, Belgium, the UK and France. We’re also told that a full site will launch on January 29th, though no pricing details (nor a US release date) were mentioned. Our one and only wish? That this thing would’ve been displayed at CES last week.
