Established in 2009 in Waco, Texas, Balcones is a bold distillery that over the years has been capable of building a solid range of corn whisky from the precious blue variety, locally grown in Mexico and in the Southern US. Balcones found in the True Blue 100 Proof the best and more balanced expression of this original liquor.
Scents of crème brûlée and maple syrup. Eucalyptus oils follow. Unripe red fruit, toasted corn, white pepper, and rich notes of cocoa and nut on the palate. Long finish, with cedar peel and toasted corn.
90Among the whiskies tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews, those who scored the best were selected. These products were then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The only indication on the sample concerns the ABV content: a red mark states that the product has an ABV higher than 50% (100° proof). The test results are then compared, and the TOP 10 is made.
Since 2016 CigarsLover Magazine releases the top 10 whiskies of the year. This list will be published in detail in the Winter 2020 issue of CigarsLover Magazine.
