A whisky that has been made in celebration of legendary Texas band, ZZ Top.
This whisky has the same name as the band’s first top 10 charting album – Tres Hombres. This name is also a reference to the three grains used to make the spirit: roasted blue corn, malted barley and rye.
Balcones compares the three grains to the members of the band themselves, saying: “First, blue corn to provide a solid bass layer and an oily body. Next, malted barley matured in virgin oak, for a soft-toned mid-palate and a stone fruit heavy finish, and finally, rye, to deliver a bright spicy top note to the whole ensemble.”
The whisky is bottled at 50% ABV, for excellent body, balance and intensity.
