Still Austin Releases First Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey
Still Austin Whiskey recently launched its first limited release cask strength bourbon at in and off-premises establishments throughout the state of Texas and at the distillery’s tasting room.
The homegrown distillery located in the heart of South Austin released 1,100 cases of the new whiskey, a much larger quantity than they usually release. An additional 1,100 cases will be available in September after this first batch, the distillery said in a prepared statement.
The new expression contains the same mash bill as the company’s flagship straight bourbon whiskey 70% non-GMO white corn, 25% Elbon rye, and 5% wildfire malted barley. However, it doesn’t use the slow water reduction process. This creates a higher-proof whiskey that is a deeper, darker version of its sibling, The Musician.
