Pretty good but wish the fig and honey flavors were more pronounced. It primarily tastes like an average whiskey. Not bad but not exceptional.

Loved this! Very different, not quite a rum, not quite a whiskey. I didn't find it too sweet. Best of both worlds!

This is my second bottle. Sweet taste thru out, along with a semi smooth finish and small bite. ABV is perfect for my taste. I will continue to keep a bottle on hand. If you like old #7, this is worth a try.

Great, full-bodied flavor

Gary, Sep 5, 2019

There is a hint of vanilla that goes along with a sweetness. I perfered to drink it chilled as it brought out the sweeter finish.

I wanted something different and this did not disappoint. Very sweet and floral. The only issue I found was a lack of oils during the linger. I will be buying another bottle soon.

Super unique, fruity with a whiskey flavour that hints at honey. Love it for a sweeter offering.

Really rich, velvety focus on figs, honey, and smoke. It's very special.

Nice smoky/spicy whiskey.

Christopher, Apr 21, 2018

Not that sweet considering what it is made of. Not terribly smooth, neither. Not bad, but not worth buying again.

Scott, Apr 1, 2018

Good flavor, a little harsh/burn after it goes down. All in all a good option that I will buy again.

Definitely true to its name. Like a rolling thunder in your mouth!

Little bit sweet for my liking, but a good after-dinner drink.

nose: honey, rose petals, lots of citrus primarily apricot, wood, some leather, a little apple palate: vanilla, apple, lots of spiciness, medium mouthfeel finish: a little bitter apple with sugar and honey overall: great nose, flavors on the palate were sweet and good but probably best served as a mixer in an old fashion or equivalent

Smooth with a robust flavor. I like it !!

Doyle, Sep 13, 2017

Rich, soft bourbon, with a smooth almost sweet finish. Perfect for after dinner conversation.

Jeff, Jul 11, 2017

Very tasty, but definitely not a daily drinker. Almost a dessert whiskey, almost a rum not a whiskey. More of a novelty for your bar than a regular drinker.

I'm so glad y'all picked up Balcones Distillery spirits! They are one of the major things I knew I would miss when I left TX and now you ship it to my door. Excellent!

Lovely in the glass, this this is a tasty treat for those overwhelmed by other whiskies. Warm, without the burn, unique taste, with a pleasant, sweet/floral/vanilla finnish.

Love it!

Awesome drink for when you want to take a slight step away from a normal whiskey.

Jon, Aug 26, 2016

I agree with other reviews in that it should be classified as a rum given it's honey and sugar base. There's nothing whiskey about the initial ingredients, though the aging does add a more robust aroma and mouth feel than is typical of rums.

Craig, Apr 7, 2016

I call this a "rumskey". Whiskey on the front (definitely picking up the vanilla notes), fruitiness on the back-end. Smells great, very tasty.

Michael, Feb 10, 2016

Amazingly tasty! The figs are in the background, but the sweetness is undeniable!!

John, Sep 9, 2015

This is one smooth and flavorful drink, if you haven't tried it, you're missing a great experience

guest, Sep 2, 2015

Hints of rum flavor & nose, plays like a whiskey. Totally unique. Sweet without being obnoxious, just the right mix of sugar, fig & honey. Love this spirit!
