Texas Single Malt Spirit
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 53%
Founded in Waco, Texas in 2008, Balcones distillery makes some of the USA's most innovative and exciting whiskies.
For Balcones Texas Single Malt the distillery uses a variety of wood types, and due to the hot Texas climate much less ageing is required for the casks to have a dramatic effect: Balcones Texas Single Malt is aged around two years before bottling at 53%, and although that makes it a straight whiskey under US laws, it must be classified here as a Malt Spirit.
