Balcones Baby Blue Corn Whisky

Xmas is nice when you can get nice presents and get to taste them :-) I just got to taste a newcomer in state of Texas from Balcones Distilling in Waco, Texas. They have made Balcones BabyBlue Texas Corn Whisky. It is made from roasted Atole, a Hopi Blue corn meal. First the nose is somewhat sweet vanilla/oak, with whiff of flour. You know when smell corn Masa flour. The palate is little bit nutty and flour. It rounds up to have sweetness at the end. After a sip of this, you can not help but think Tequila too.

BTW: They say that this is not really a bourbon, but a TEXAS corn whisky.

This distiller is also planning to release a traditional single malt and peaty single malt, made the Texas way soon. I can hardly wait what they will make.
