Description
When we created Texas 1, we didn't set out to start a movement. We just wanted to pioneer a new way to distill the spirit we loved while taking cues from the Texas climate. We started with a traditional single malt approach to our process and ingredients but with a more virgin oak-forward profile to bring a new perspective to what is now known as American Single Malt. Along the way, we found our purpose—to be a leader in this burgeoning category.
Distilled using time-honored traditions in partnership with the harsh Texas climate, Texas 1 uses 100% Scottish Golden Promise malted barley while taking a new approach to maturation by aging the whisky in new, customized 240L and 500L American Oak barrels.
This approach—alongside our extended fermentation, dedication to double-batch copper pot still distillation, meticulous blending process and diligent attention to detail at every step—has led to this celebrated, award-winning American Single Malt Whisky.
ON THE NOSE, Texas 1 invites you into an expressive yet brooding mélange of marmalade on sourdough toast, grilled peaches and dried Mission figs. Over time, it evolves to reveal a bouquet of sandalwood, faint eucalyptus and tiramisu.
ON THE PALATE, silky dense flavors of candied orange peel, blackberry jam, port wine reduction and stewed plums combine and recombine before a lingering finish of varnish, black walnut and raspberry ganache.
