Balcones Texas Rye Bottled in Bond 100 Proof Pot Distilled Straight Rye Whiskey 750ml

Producer Description

Balcones Bottled in Bond Texas Straight Rye Whisky is a testament to the innovative spirit of Balcones Distilling, located in Waco, Texas. This whisky is crafted from a unique mash bill consisting of 91% Texas-grown Elbon rye, complemented by specialty rye grains from Germany, including Cara Rye, Chocolate Rye, and Roasted Rye. Aged for a minimum of four years in a U.S. bonded warehouse, this rye whisky adheres to the stringent standards required for the Bottled in Bond designation.

• Appearance: The whisky has a dark brown caramel color, reflecting its rich and robust character.
• Palate: The palate opens with flavors of graham cracker crust, dark chocolate espresso bean, and cardamom, followed by well-articulated notes of carrot frond, cedar chest, and apricot preserves. Nutella and blackberry jam on rye toast add a delightful complexity.
• Finish: The finish is medium-long, with lingering notes of cinnamon spice, dark chocolate, espresso, toffee, green tea, sage, molasses, and peppermint.
