A very interesting single malt American whisky from Texas, this was distilled at Balcones and was "yard-aged" in ex-bourbon American oak before bottling. Expect huge flavours from this one...
Freshly baked banana bread with undertones of honey and vanilla and just the faintest hint of cedar wood at the back. Suggestions of roasted chestnuts and heavy cream.
Ester-y with apple and orchard fruits. Brown sugar makes an appearance and transforms into molasses.
Warm, woody spices and some breadiness, but not necessarily maltiness, completes this luscious single malt.

Thank you! I live on Texas, I can not purchase Balcones whisky here on Texas. In one large chain store I was told you could not purchase Balcones products unless you were a personal friend of the owner. Reordering now. Thanks again !!
We discovered this in San Antonio. Was able to purchase a bottle. At our Christmas open house, I brought out the bottle to serve it to only one guest. I got distracted and at the end of the party it was all gone. Guests were mixing it with coke!!!! My husband has since forgiven me!
Wasn't expecting this whisky to be this good...! Very rich, caramel, deep toffee nose and a big punchy flavour. Similar to a Jura in my opinion, very impressed!
This is the best American whisky I've ever tasted!
