The first in American single malt have accomplished what another brand couldn't convince me of - rapid aging works! It's rich and substantial, with initial scents of leather, tart cherries, and cocoa. Polished wood, plum nectar, and allspice follow. There's much to discover. It arrives bold and strong, with the taste unfolding into molasses, blackberries, and spicy notes. Sip this offering from Balcones slowly without water; it's direct. The lengthy finish features roasted coffee, caramelized sugar, and fresh mint. A potent spirit I'm thoroughly enjoying! RATING: 4.2/5.0 stars ≙ 89 pts → FIRST-CLASS [+]
