Balcones Bottled In Bond Texas Rye Whiskey 100 Proof 750ml

Details

When Balcones’s Rye hit four years old, they were pleasantly surprised by the density and clarity the benchmark revealed, with darker chocolates, more acidic dried fruits, and a refreshing solvency. They have become so familiar with the dance they have learned to step in their intense Texas climate, that new plateaus of elegance and balance in their spirits are much appreciated and hard won. On the nose, Texas Rye Bottled in Bond balances warm sun tea, candied fennel, and spruce tips before cooling notes of melted mint chip ice cream and raspberry glaze. On the palate, it begins with graham cracker crust, dark chocolate espresso bean, and cardamom before well-articulated notes of carrot frond, cedar chest, and apricot preserves. Nutella and blackberry jam on rye toast linger for the finale.
