Balcones Texas Single Malt Whisky
Balcones Texas Single Malt Whisky will appeal to Scotch and bourbon drinkers alike. With notes of warm toffee, dark sugar and caramel, it has a flavor profile similar to Scotch. In addition, the barreling process adds notes of honey and vanilla, which would appeal to any bourbon drinker.
Named "best whisky" many times over, Balcones Texas Single Malt is made from 100% Golden Promise barley and aged in several different types of casks.
A unique style of malt whisky - Texas made, Texas proud. Balcones Texas Malt Whisky is born of hundreds of years of distilling tradition transformed by a deep sense of place. Mellow notes of sauteed pears and ripe fruit mixed with a lingering toasty malt character. We are very excited that this whisky which we have worked so hard to produce in finally ready to release. We hope you enjoy it.
