Since the Prohibition in the 1920s, whisky has not been distilled in Texas. Until in 2009 in an old welding shop converted into a distillery in Waco, Balcones Distilling began to run. Founded by a group of friends out of enthusiasm for traditionally distilled whisky with carefully selected ingredients. Balcones makes bourbon, but also single malt and rye whisky. And their specialty: whisky from the rich, oily 'blue corn'.
This is a Texas single malt whisky from the young Balcones distillery, in Texas indeed. The powerful (62.9%) whisky was bottled in 2021 by Archives in their Venomous Snakes series. The whisky matured for only 3 years but is rich and full of flavour!
In 2021, Archives released three bottlings in the Venomous Snakes series, three single malt whiskies from Texas-based Balcones Distilling. Like the others, this one is a powerful dram at 66.3% ABV. It matured for 4 years in a new French oak cask.
It's quite a story why this straight rye whisky got the name Eclipse. It has to do with the use of both beer and whisky yeast for this rye. This particular whisky matured for 4 years in a new oak barrel, after which Balcones bottled it at a hefty 64%.
