About the brand

Balcones was born when Chip Tate woke one day and decided to do something new. Rather than launch a
new pasta sauce or man bag, Tate decided that he would aim much higher. He would start his own Texas
whiskey tradition. And so the American craft distillery of Balcones was born. The distillery itself is housed
within an old welding shop under a bridge in Waco, Texas. Whilst that might sound like an odd setting for
distillery, it has so far proven to be the perfect place for producing this classy whiskey. Original from the

Member Reviews of Balcones Mirador Single Malt Whisky (1)

I wrap-up my virtual tour of the Balcones distillery in Waco, Texas with the Mirador. MoM has no tasting notes, but I found a couple that are night/day from each other. For me, I immediately get black and white pepper, followed by fennel and lemongrass, then back to black pepper, more black pepper, and some black pepper – not sweet at all. Now, those of you that have eaten with me know that I love black pepper, but even for me, this is over-the-top. If you like a rye whiskey, you may like this. The legs are thin and runny, so the finish is medium at best, but the black pepper lingers. I hear Balcones makes a good bourbon. They should stick with that, and leave the single malt barley to others.
