| The Abbey of Gethsemani In a 1998 taste test, The Wall Street Journal ranked Gethsemani’s Bourbon fruitcake as the “Best Overall” in terms of quality and value. These dark, spicy cakes are distinctive in flavor, in part because the Abbey’s recipe calls for soaking them in fine Kentucky Bourbon. Joanne’s Comment: The fruitcake and fudge were terrific. My family inhaled them both. Never saw non-fruit cake eaters fall in love with fruitcake until now! The cheese was a bit strong, so next time I’ll order the mild variety. And, when you place an order you can then order their wonderful CDs – excellent listening and background music. |
