Went to work in Germany in1988. My work mates and I were introduced to Apfelkorn by some German friends. I am a malt whiskey man by nature so I know a good drink, this is fantastic drink for everyone it's a must to taste.

This is apple perfection in a bottle. Only to be drunk when it has been in the freezer. This is an ideal chaser when drinking bottles of pils and playing shock dice.

Fantastic drink first drank this while serving in Germany in the army. As with the other reviews serve iced cold in shot glasses, get some mates round get a couple of ice cold bottles out and try shot glass racing. DRINK RESPONSIBLY!

First tasted this whilst serving in Cyprus, Thought the ABV was much higher? I know you can keep it in the freezer and it generally won\'t freeze! My father-in-law walked in to the Patio doors after a few of these! It is soooooo moreish too.

Never been without it since my time in the army. Stick a bottle in the freezer half hour before you want a drink so its well chilled, beautiful!!

I also first had this drink in Gutersloh, Germany, while serving with the royal Artillery, a lovely drink best served very cold.

I got hooked on this lovely drink on detachment in Norway. We would place the bottle outside in the snow and chill then serve in small metal cups whilst playing cards...paradise!

This is a milder version of German apple schnapps. Apfelkorn has about half the alcohol content an actual apple schnapps, and is quite a bit sweeter. I usually don't like sweet drinks, but I got hooked on this one while I was living in Germany. It tastes a lot like those apple flavored Jolly Rogers (pieces of hard candy) I used eat all the time as a kid, but with a kick to it. I agree with all the other reviewers, it should be enjoyed at ice cold temperatures, in small schnaps-sized drinking glasses.

I found this drink while serving in Germany with the RAF. When I came back I found that nobody here, in Glasgow or Edinburgh off licences had heard of it. I agree with previous reviewer that served ice cold it is a really lovely drink, and probably second only to Single Malt, but I am a true Scotsman !! On a recent trip abroad I found it again while passing through Schipol airport, oh joy! The fact that I have now found this site and can buy Apfelkorn in the UK on line is even more joy, Och aye !!

Aphfelkorn, is 'Perfection in a bottle', so long as its very, very, very cold, iced glass (put some glasses in the freezer for a few hours!....so you can have a few, with mates) no ice, no mixers...just the korn, sweet succulent,as it goes down and hits the taste buds with an explosion of apple and then you start to glow as it starts to warm and you realise its alcoholic!!! sexy drink!!!!! PS Best thing to come out of Germany except cars!!!!!

to enjoy this drink in all its glory, you must keep the bottle and liquor glasses in the freezer compartment and when you want to have a tipple , pour straight from bottle into the frosted glasses, there is absoulutly no other taste like it , mmmmm
