Garrison Brothers Boot Flask Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Situated on a rolling ranch in Texas Hill Country, Garrison Brothers Distillery was founded in 2005. The distillery is the oldest legal whiskey distillery in Texas. "Like everything in the Lone Star State, our dreams were big from the start," says Dan Garrison, the distillerys owner. "We didnt want to make just any bourbon, we wanted to make the best bourbon ever made."Garrison Brothers Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey is made from organic corn, wheat and barley. "We get about 30,000 pounds of corn, wheat and barley delivered a month," says Garrison. "The wheat comes from our own fields we have 65 acres of wheat on the other side of the property." In addition, the corn is harvested from local fields in Texas while the barley is sourced from the Pacific Northwest.Once the grains arrive at the distillery, they are milled and mashed before being fermented for four days. Following fermentation, the wash is distilled through an antique, copper pot still nicknamed the copper cowgirl. "She was made as an experimental still," says Garrison, "for Wild Turkey Distillery." After the bourbon has been distilled, it is aged in charred, American oak barrels. "The char softens the wood, and allows the bourbon to expand into the wood. When it gets hot and it gets hot out here in Texas that bourbon will soak deep into the wood and extract the chemical compounds that are in there.As a result of this aging process, the bourbon has a rich, deep aroma of butterscotch, nutmeg, vanilla and coconut. Notes of caramelized oranges and fruit dominate the palate, along with touches of melted butter, whipped cream and oak. The finish is smooth, with touches of toffee, milk chocolate and espresso. The bourbon earned the Silver Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2013. This Garrison Brothers Boot Flask is the same smooth, award-winning Garrison Bros bourbon, created for portability and ergonomically designed to slide into your back pocketor fit inside your favorite pair of boots.Pick up your bottle today!
