Balcones - Baby Blue Corn Whiskey

Baby Blue is a unique corn whisky made from atole, a roasted blue corn meal. We use this rich and nutty corn to produce a whisky that we hope will bring something new to the corn whisky tradition. Baby Blue isn't bourbon nor white lightning. It has the freshness and verve of traditional corn whisky but with a refined complexity. The result is a round nuttiness and roasty overtones with a smooth finish. Baby Blue was the first Texas whisky on the market since prohibition, and is the only blue corn whisky in the world. It is the only craft-made whisky to have received a 5-star rating from F. Paul Pacult's Spirit Journal other than Balcones "1" Texas Single Malt.
