Balcones Hechiceros

On the nose: cinnamon, bread, honey, dried apricots Palate: bread pudding, figs, buttered biscuits

Reminds me of Noah’s Mill but on another level with way more of a kick, but that’s expected at this ABV. Tasting sweet caramel, cinnamon-y raisin with a smooth finish. I’m digging this.

It’s hot, but full of flavor

Spicy, complex

hard to pick up anything on the nose because of its high proof. very alcohol forward. slight vanilla and oak, as to be expected from a bourbon. after I tasted it once, I got more sweetness. vanilla and toasted marshmallow. less oak than the first. on the palate, it is very tannic. it dries out your tongue immediately After the initial taste, the whiskey begins to explode with plum and grapes. it finished with that sweet, fruity, rich aftertaste that I associate with actual sherry, not whiskies finished in sherry casks. the finish is long and sweet and rich. the finish is probably my favorite part of this whiskey. it's a very fun and interesting whiskey. definitely worth a taste, though I wouldn't get a bottle of it.
