Balcones True Blue Bottling Note

A gorgeous creation from Balcones in Waco, Texas. They make their True Blue corn whisky using blue corn, which makes a mighty fine tortilla chip and (so it seems) a mighty fine whisky too! It's unique and also pretty dangerous, as blue corn contains a high oil content, which when mixed with heat from distillation can become somewhat... Flammable. The risk is worth it, however, as True Blue is a true blue winner.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Deep and rich spice with nutmeg and pot pourri coming through. Vanilla ice cream with chocolate chip cookie dough engulf the spice and migrate to chocolate cake. Very buttery and Big Red returns with brown sugar in tow.

Palate: Sweet and soft on the palate with banana nut bread that gives over to freshly baked spice cake.

Finish: Long, lingering, sweet, and smooth. Blue corn whiskey is something special, indeed.

Huge Sweetness

No lie - this makes the single best Boulevardier Cocktail I've ever had. The sweetness complements the other ingredients like nothing else I've ever tried. Shine on you Texan Marvels.

Not sure.

Tastes like corn moonshine that was distilled about a fortnight ago. If that's your thing then this is a great drink but at nearly eighty quid a bottle? Get the fuck outta here.

Popcorny goodness

I tasted this at recent Manchester Whisky Club USA event and it was my fave of the night. Buttery corn-on-the-cob palate with a long smooth finish that has loads of popcorn in it. Yummy.
