Origins & Craftsmanship

• Crafted by Balcones Distilling in Waco, Texas, celebrated for bold innovation in American whisky. Their terroir-driven process is shaped by Texass extreme climate swingsscorching heat and icy lows.

• An imaginative take on their annual Mirador release, Echoing a solar eclipse, this expression uses a dual-yeast fermentation: red wine and ros yeast combined with their house malt whisky yeast.

• Matured for 45 years in a mix of first-, second-, and third-fill Kentucky bourbon barrels, blending fruit, grain, and textured depth.

• Bottled at 55% ABV (110110.6 proof) to highlight boldness and finesse.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: A radiant bloom of pressed flowers and clover hay, layered with mango meringue, pineapple gumdrops, almond biscotti, and vibrant honeydew rind.

• Palate: A textured interplay of blush lemon custard and white-chocolate raspberry tart, softened by guava pound cake and herbal prairie sage.

• Finish: Long and confident, with dried thyme, and a lingering whisper of honeyed jasmine tea.

• Additional notes from the field: bright apple, pear, Demerara sweetness, orange zest, white pepper, tannic oak freshness, and subtle red wine characterlike an eclipse moving in and out of view.
