We heard the buzz about this whiskey long before we had the chance to taste it, and, thankfully, it really lives up to the hype! Rich with the butterscotch and vanilla caramel we expect from bourbon, there’s also a deep, earthy undertone. It’s hard not to keep pouring just a little bit more of this full-flavored bourbon, as bold as you’d expect from a distillery in a Texas ranch. Wait, Texas bourbon? That’s right! The only geographic requirement for bourbon is that it has to be made in America. Kentucky may have the most storied history, but many of today’s best, most delicious bourbons are made in other states. Garrison Brothers founder Dan learned how to distill in the Bluegrass State, where he worked as an intern at several well-known distilleries. But he didn’t want to just copy what everyone else was doing. He set out to make a true, Texas original. Believe the hype! tip of the tongue We recommend you sip this whiskey straight, or with just a splash of water. Sometimes, simple is best.
