Balcones Hechiceros

Great tasting and fairly smooth.

On the nose heavy butterscotch, caramel, raisins, grapes. On the palate butterscotch, caramel, dark honey, port wine influence from the 2nd maturation in port barrels. So rich and even more complexity than the original Balcones Texas single malt which I also love. This one tops it and is one of my favorite single malts!

At first smell there is zero mistaking that this was finished in port casks. Sweet smell of caramel, toasted marshmallows, and raisins. At 120 proof the heat is unmistakable. However it has a rich mouth feel and the single malt comes through nicely; Sweet, strong, and a bit oaky.
