Balcones Distilling Baby Blue Corn Whisky
The first Texas whisky on the market since Prohibition, Baby Blue is crafted from roasted blue corn. This rich and oily maize adds new sophistication to the corn whisky tradition while keeping the freshness and verve of classic American distilling. Intentionally youthful, Baby Blue captures the essence of this prized corn with a round nuttiness, roasted overtones and refined complexity. The mouthfeel is viscous with a soft finish. A true Texas original that we are delighted to share with the world.

Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select
To craft Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select Tennessee Whiskey, master distiller Jeff Arnett of Lynchburg, TN first selects one out of every hundred barrels for its unique and expressive qualities. Once these special casks have been identified, they are moved to the very top of the distillery's rickhouses, where extreme temperature changes facilitate dramatic interactions between the whiskey and the wood (by law, aTennessee whiskeya must be aged new, charred American oak barrels). Finally, each barrel is bottled individually at 94 proof, resulting in truly aone-of-a-kinda flavors in every bottle.

Part of the Brown-Forman family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Nose: Classic aroma of vanilla, caramel, brown sugar and even some cinnamon.
Palate: On the palate, notes of oak and charcoal become evident, along with sweeter touches of orange peel and honey.
Finish: The finish is sweet and spicy, with flavors of butterscotch and clove lingering on the tongue.
