The Tiki tradition is alive and well at Garrison Brothers Distillery and while we may not have a nice sea breeze or the sand between your toes but it doesn’t hurt to pretend! We’re hosting our annual “Hye-Land Time” a celebration complete with specialty cocktails, eclectic tropical decor, and more Hawaiian shirts than you could ever dream of out here in the Hill Country. The Cowboy Rides Again – How An Accidental Discovery Led To The World’s Finest Bourbon.“Where flowers bloom, so does hope” – Lady Bird, our Twice-Finished Bourbon Masterpiece.The medium-long finish has a saline, savory note. Cherry cola works into the mid palate, with a tiny bit of black tea tannin on the back.

The 1.3 acre pool was a New Deal project completed just after the Great Depression. Garrison’s family first enjoyed the place as a state park swimming spot: a giant freshwater pool built around the San Solomon springs. These three were an irrigation collective in the area in the early 20th century. The Garrison Brothers Balmorhea Bourbon gets two sets of these new barrels, aging for four years in the first and an additional year in the second (which has a different char and toast profile).īalmorhea sounds like a bluff overlooking the the Sound of Islay, when in fact it’s a combination of three surnames: Balcom, Morrow, Rhea. They were like those special casks seated high in a Kentucky rick house.Īfter, Garrison knew he needed tougher barrels, thicker staves. What survived, though, was bourbon condensed: thicker, burly, the angels having exacted a high share. The heat was so extreme that they lost gallons of their first round of whiskey.
