Balcones Cataleja Texas Single Malt Whiskey
Balcones Cataleja Texas Single Malt Whiskey
Celebrate the 15th anniversary of Balcones Distilling with Cataleja, a limited edition single malt whiskey that showcases the craftsmanship and innovation of this award-winning Texas distillery. Cataleja is made with 100% Golden Promise malted barley, a rare and premium variety that imparts a delicate fruitiness to the spirit. The whiskey is aged in used Kentucky bourbon barrels for three years, then transferred to decommissioned sherry solera casks from various Spanish bodegas for another year, and finally blended and rested in neutral barrels to achieve a perfect harmony of flavors. The result is a complex and unique whiskey that balances the sweetness and richness of sherry with the earthiness and spice of Texas whiskey. Cataleja is a tribute to the makers who came before and inspired Balcones to chart their own course in the world of American single malts. Cataleja means spyglass in Spanish, and this whiskey invites you to explore the horizon of possibilities through the lens of tradition. Enjoy this whiskey neat, on the rocks, or with a splash of water to unlock its full potential.
