Product description

Product description
Balcones Texas Single Malt is one of the few single malts from the USA. There, the specifications for Single Malt are less strict than for its Scottish counterparts. It may be matured for less than three years and may also contain grains other than barley. Pot Stills are also not primarily used; American whisky is often distilled continuously on patent or column stills. At Balcones, however, a conscious decision was made to have Pot Stills built by the well-known Scottish manufacturer Forsyths.

Oak Oak Oak Cinnamon Pear Raisin Herb Oil

Man merkt sofort dass er bei drastischen Temperaturen gereift ist. Ein extremer Whisky. Ganz viel Holzeinfluss, sowohl im Geruch als auch im Geschmack. Sehr viel Ähnlichkeit mit Bourbon-Whiskeys, aber deutlich schwerer, öliger und intensiver.

Geschmack: holzig, süß, ölig, cremig, voll, intensiv, malzig, Getreidenoten, flüssiges Karamell, Fruchtigkeit, Eichenwürze, angenehmens Mundgefühl

Abgang: holzig, Eichenwürze, aromatisches Holz, lang anhaltend, wärmend, süß, voll, Vanille, leicht säuerliches Malz, Eichenfruchtigkeit

Kommentar: die 53% sind richtig gewählt und perfekt eingebunden. Ein hochwertiger Single Malt aus Texas mit deutlichem Holzgeschmack.
