Detailed Description

Barrel & Bottle Balcones Select Single Barrel American Oak | Barrel #3525 Tasting Notes

Size: 750mL

Proof: 131.4 (65.7% ABV)

Age: 2 years 10 Months

Nose: Most mild of the three. Pears/fruits and candy. Oak comes through at the end

Palate: The wood and body of "Balcones", not overly oaked, subtle fruit blend. Whole wheat toast with butter. Burnt caramel, but light. Just a few drops of water blends the flavors together, a touch more of the wood comes out.

Finish: Caramel comes through just a bit and the wood pleasantly lingers. Tasted neat, its warm, but would not realize its 65.7%, w/ water you really feel the higher proof.

Barrel and Bottle Balcones Select Single Barrel French Oak Whisky Tasting Notes

Size: 750mL

Proof: 131.8 (65.9% ABV)

Age: 2 years 10 Months

Nose: Incredibly flora and aromatic. Lightens up ad gives way to sweet caramel and fruits. Most pronounced of the three. Water dramatically adds to the floral and fruit.

Palate: All the spice! Tangy citrus and orange, wood and caramel. Water reduces the spice but heightens the sweet fruit.

Finish: Zesty orange peel. Just a touch of the wood. Feel the proof at 65.9% more than the others, but oh its a good burn. Just a few drops of water greatly reduces the burn and brings soft caramel to the surface. Wait for it.

Barrel & Bottle Balcones Select Single Barrel Hungarian Oak | Barrel #4204 Tasting Notes

Size: 750mL

Proof: 136.8 (68.4% ABV)

Age: 2 years 11 Months

Nose: Buttery, mild sweet fruits. Very light cotton candy. Pleasant, not overpowering.

Palate: Very buttery, subtle fruits, sweet cream in the middle palate, slight banana starts to come out, pink cotton candy. Great with a few drops of water, sweet comes to the front, more of the oak on the finish.

Finish: Baked fruits on a toasted crust. Way smoother than it should be at 64.6%. Water softens the finish even more.

Distillery Information

A quarter mile from downtown Waco, Texas, in a neighborhood of long abandoned storefronts, is a small, rusted-metal shed hidden beneath the 17th Street Bridge. The one-time welding shop sits in between the overpass' enormous support pillars, next to a white trailer. It's a safe bet none of the drivers know they're speeding over the worldwide headquarters of Balcones Distilling, the maker of the finest new whiskey in America.
