Balcones Brimstone

American craft distiller Balcones created this smoky corn whisky, fittingly named the Brimstone, by smoking the whisky itself rather than the grain. It is innovative techniques such as this which are creating a buzz around American whisk(e)y at the moment.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Barbecue, steaks, brown sugar, raisins, honey roast pork. It's all there, a Texan aroma for a Texan whisky.

Palate

Peppery and sweet in equal quantities with some herbal undertones and BBQ sauce overtones.

Finish

The finish is like a pepper-rubbed steak with a little charcoal too!

Overall

What's not to like about this big smoky whisky? Brimstone is an incredibly apt name for this barbecue of a dram. There is no pretension here.

Smoky with stone fruit

Yummy sweet and smoky . My favorite whiskey

Master of Malt Customer Jun 26, 2023

Add CO2 and vanilla ice cream. Put on your roller skates.

Imagine A&W root beer without the CO2, boiled with charcoal and peat until H2O almost gone. Then turpentine added for taste and body. My parents used to give me coal oil and sugar for flu when I was a kid. Liked it then. Helped the symptoms. But check your liver enzymes as a baseline. My dad was Texan.

Texas Laphroaig

I can see how this is a love it or hate it whiskey. It starts off with an almost unpleasant smoked food taste. It reminded me of Chechil and Lapsang Souchong or like licking a bbq pit. However the more you drink it the less you notice the smoke and the more you notice all the complex flavors it has to offer. It’s comparable to an Islay scotch in that way. Flavors of rock candy, salted toffee, grilled corn, butter and brisket burnt ends. I want to buy a few bottles of this just to cellar because I never want to run out of this stuff.

Like drinking a bonfire

Dominic Roskrow said that this tasted like scraping the burnt meat off the bbq, griding it with charcoal and adding that to a bourbon. Its a pretty accurate description of this whisky but if you like Smokey whiskys, this is a must have in the cabinet. I personally love it but it's an acquired taste.

Texas comes to the cabinet. Try it!

Different in all the best ways. I love a peaty scotch (Lagavulin is my fave). This is not that ... but excellent. Smoky but not mediciny. This is a great try for anyone that likes smoke in their whiskey. Surprisingly even and smooth start to the wonderful smoky finish.
