Balcones Texas Rum 59.6% 700ml information

Balcones Texas Rum is a unique expression from the renowned Balcones Distilling, now part of the Diageo group. Founded in 2008 by Chip Tate, Balcones was historically known for its whisky production, utilizing blue corn from New Mexico and malted barley from Texas. However, once a year, the distillery shifts its focus to produce this exceptional rum.

Crafted from high-quality molasses, the rum undergoes a traditional double distillation in handmade copper pot stills, followed by aging in a variety of oak barrels with different toasting profiles. The result is a rum that is as vibrant as it is rich, with a luscious caramel-like texture and a complex array of flavors.

The palate offers an intriguing interplay of roasted nuts, resinous undertones, and toasted cereals, reminiscent of barley or rye coffee. A medley of spices, including clove, exotic pepper, and nutmeg, adds depth and complexity. As the rum opens up, it reveals even more toasty aromas, such as roasted nuts, burnt cane, caramel coffee, and an espresso martini edge. The natural white oak eventually emerges, lending a soothing mellowness, akin to a vanilla coconut crème brûlée.

This rum showcases Balcones Distilling's commitment to quality and innovation, offering a unique addition to any rum collection. Known for its well-integrated high alcohol content, Balcones Texas Rum displays flavors of cocoa, toasted nuts, wood, spice, cherry, and a hint of vanilla.
