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.

Part of the Heaven Hill Distilleries 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: Rich vanilla and caramel are balanced by toasted oak and baking spices, with subtle hints of fruity notes like cherry or orange peel.
Palate: A full-bodied and smooth mouthfeel delivers flavors of sweet butterscotch and dark fruit, with a robust backbone of charred oak, cinnamon, and rye spice.
Finish: Long, warming, and pleasantly oily, the finish lingers with notes of caramel, lingering spice, dry oak, and a touch of roasted nuts.
