Andalusia Whiskey Co. Releases New Single Malt with Texas Grown Grain

imageAndalusia Whiskey Co. is releasing their first whiskey using Texas grown barley malted by TexMalt in Fort Worth.

99% of craft beer and malt whiskey produced in Texas is brewed with grain that's not from Texas. While barley can be farmed in this state, malting is a separate step performed by large facilities traditionally found in Northern states. In the last 5 years, several small maltsters have opened in Texas that process malted barley grown in the Panhandle near Amarillo and the farms near Palo Duro Canyon.

Palo Duro Single Malt Whiskey by Andalusia Whiskey Co will be an annual release made 100% with Texas grown and malted barley. Each annual release will showcase a different Texas malster and whiskey style.

2021 marks the first release of the Palo Duro Single Malt Whiskey made with barley that is grown in the Texas High Plains, malted by TexMalt, Fort Worth, TX, and smoked with peachwood from Pink Tractor Farms, Blanco,TX. “We are excited to showcase a whiskey that has undergone the entire process in Texas.” said co-founder Ty Phelps.

Andalusia Whiskey Co. mashed & Distilled in 2018 then the whiskey aged 3 years in New #4 char American oak barrels. This unique whiskey will be bottled at 100 proof (50%ABV). It will be sold in a full bottle (750 ml) at $69 per bottle. Limited Availability.
