ripe, buttered stone fruit, banana and pears; honey and rose water with delicate citrus accents

This multiple award winning craft distilled Single Malt made in Waco Texas is a must for any Whisky fan. An attractive, honeyed nose of ripe, buttered stone fruit, banana, and pears is complemented by a touch of something floral and citrus. Cereal and toast comes through on the palate with more citrus – think of dark, thick cut marmalade. “True to its Lone Star provenance, this whiskey is spicy and aggressive, full of rich, dark fruit flavors, with honey and caramel on the finish.” – Clay Risen New York Times
