  • Much like their lower proof bourbon, Cask Strength could use some more complexity as it currently wears what it has on its sleeve.

  • The Whiskey Wash

  • Still Austin is a young distillery, and this is a young whiskey. You wouldn’t necessarily know either fact by tasting this juice, however.

  • Distiller
  • By Jake Emen
  • A lengthy finish starts with heat, then fades into oak, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add a touch of water to reveal a sweeter side, with rich dulce de leche, baking spices, and toasted whole grain bread.

  • Nose:

    Apple pie, cedar, pecan, brown sugar and oak. Sweet, a bit of char, lots of sweet wood and fruits.

  • Taste:

    Oaky and rich on the palate, viscous and syrupy. The proof is doing serious work here - for the better. Satisfying texture and mouthfeel, without big, perceivable, heat.

  • Finish:

    Long finish, tons of cocoa, brown sugar, clove and angostura bitters. Satisfying balance of sweet, wood forward, fruit and some savory character to balance.

  • Overall:

    Another impressive bottling from Still Austin, the direction they are taking continues to be encouraging, downright exciting and of course: delicious.
