Balcones Texas Pot Still Bourbon Straight Bourbon Whiskey (700ml)

Volume: 700ml           ABV: 46%           Age: No Age Statement           Country: America

Established in 2008 Balcones Distillery was created to deliver a product that is original and and authentic. More importantly it was to deliver this right in the heart of Texas. Taking an old welding shop under a bridge in Waco it was slowly transformed into a whisky distillery and in 2009 the first spirit ran through the stills.

The producers here source local grain, blue corn from New Mexico, Texas grown malted barley, local re-coopered barrels and rain water. The idea is to create whisky that is recognizable and delectable. Ageing here is performed in a unique climate, barrels ‘breathe’ much faster than in Scotland which causes the oak flavours to mingle quicker and accelerates the ageing process. This is whisky that is full of rich flavours and bursting with character.

Balcones Texas Pot Still Bourbon Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a robust multi award winning bourbon bursting with big flavours.  Made grain-to-glass using a traditional pot still distillation ensures a rich and viscous spirit that stands up to ageing in new charred oak without losing its essence. Made from a mash consisting of four grains (wheat, corn, rye and barley) and aged for at least 24 months in virgin oak barrels.
