You normally wouldn’t think of Waco, Texas when you think of whisk(e)y, but a few weeks ago Balcones Single Malt beat out heavy hitters such as The Macallan, Glenmorangie and The Balvanie to win Best in Glass at a blind taste test in London. The guys at Balcones don’t simply want to make whisky in Texas, they want to create a Texas whisky tradition as well as restore a bit of Waco’s former shine.
While we’ve yet to get our hands on a sample (hint, hint), we applaud anyone attempting to revitalize a downtown core through the use of hard liquor.
