Balcones Eclipse Texas Rye Whisky

Balcones Eclipse Texas Rye Whisky is a powerful, cask-strength expression from the Texan distillers, Balcones. This bold spirit is distilled in a traditional pot still after being co-fermented with 'ale and whisky yeasts.' It is then aged for approximately four years in charred new American oak casks, developing an intensely flavorful and full-bodied profile. Bottled at a fearsome 64% ABV, Balcones Eclipse delivers a complex array of notes. Expect layers of thick caramel, sweet vanilla, and rich rye bread, complemented by hints of leather, dried fruits, dark chocolate, coffee, and tobacco. A warming finish showcases spices like cinnamon, chili, cloves, charred oak, and cracked black pepper, making it a robust choice for the discerning whisky enthusiast.
