This is not your standard American whiskey.

Batch 025 starts with Balcones — one of the most experimental distilleries in the US — using a mash of locally grown blue corn, creating a richer, fuller-bodied spirit compared to traditional yellow corn.

Aged in bourbon barrels under intense Texas conditions, the whisky develops quickly — often showing maturity well beyond its years due to the climate.

Then Dumangin steps in.

The whisky is finished in Ratafia Champenois casks, adding a layer of fruit, softness and a distinctly European influence that reshapes the profile.

On the nose, it’s expressive and slightly wild. Sweet corn, caramel and vanilla lead into citrus, spice and a touch of floral lift.

The palate is where it really separates.

👉 Sweet corn richness
👉 Creamy texture
👉 Spice and wine influence

Burnt marshmallow, caramel and roasted corn roll through with cinnamon, marmalade and pepper, backed by a rounded sweetness from the Ratafia finish.

The finish is long and layered. Oak, spice and sweet corn linger with a dry edge and a touch of fruit that keeps it balanced.

This is the key.

👉 Blue corn character (richer, fuller)
👉 Texas maturation (intensity)
👉 Champagne cask finish (roundness + uniqueness)

This isn’t bourbon.

It’s something else entirely.
