Warm, rich, and spiced—absolutely delightful. With the rainy, dreary, and cooler weather we’ve been experiencing lately, we’ve found ourselves craving a comforting, warm beverage. This mulled wine is the perfect choice to enjoy all season long, whether you’re savoring it this fall or winter.

Infused with our Cinnamon Whiskey and a touch of maple syrup, it strikes a perfect balance of sweetness and spice. Bright slices of Honeycrisp apple and zesty orange enhance the aroma, while cinnamon sticks lend a fragrant, warming finish. Whether for holiday gatherings or a quiet evening at home, this mulled wine is sure to delight and enchant your senses.
