Del Bac Dorado is a critically acclaimed American Single Malt whiskey produced by Whiskey Del Bac in Tucson, Arizona. It stands out in the spirits world for its unique Southwestern twist on traditional Scottish distilling methods, replacing imported peat with local desert elements.
Production & Process
- The Grain: It is crafted from 100% barley that is grown regionally.
- The Smoke: Instead of using Scottish peat, the distillery malts the barley over a velvet mesquite fire.
- Distillation: The mash is fermented and copper pot distilled entirely on-site in Tucson.
- Aging: It is aged in charred new American oak barrels, reacting intensely with the extreme temperature fluctuations of the Arizona desert.
Flavor Profile
- Aroma: Heavy notes of barbecue sauce, campfire wood, sweet tobacco, paprika, and dark chocolate.
- Palate: Soft and balanced sweet smoke. It leads into notes of grilled stone fruit, roasted caramel, and bright pepper spice.
- Finish: Tangy and smooth with an approachable, mild woodiness.
Quick Specs
- Proof: Usually bottled at 92 proof (46% ABV).
- Filtering: Non-chill filtered to preserve its rich oils and complex texture.
- Availability: Offered as a core, flagship bottle by the distillery, along with their unsmoked "Classic" expression.
