Garrison Brothers stands tall in the American whiskey scene, acclaimed for its award-winning portfolio—including standouts like Garrison Brothers Cowboy Bourbon and Garrison Brothers Small Batch. Now, the Hye, Texas-based brand is raising the bar once again with the launch of its first-ever bottled-in-bond bourbon.

Garrison Brothers Bottled in Bond

The first bottle-in-bond bourbon from the iconic distillery was made with Texas-grown grains and proofed down with pure country rainwater. I was matured for 6 years in a federally bonded warehouse and bottled at a robust 100 proof.

According to Garrison Brothers, the result is a bourbon featuring layered notes of tobacco, leather, caramelized sugar, toasted oak, root beer, dark chocolate, plums, roasted almonds, and toffee.

The tenth bourbon in the Garrison Brothers’ portfolio will be available beginning February 28th during the brand’s celebration of Texas Independence Day. 2,000 bottles of this extremely limited-edition expression will be made available to the public.

“From day one, Garrison Brothers has cooked our own mash, fermented our own distillers beer, pot-distilled, and aged our bourbon right here in Hye, Texas,” says Dan Garrison, Founder of Garrison Brothers Distillery.

“There’s no BS here. For six summers, this whiskey moved in and out of the wood, tightening its flavor and deepening its color. We proofed it down to 100 and put our name on it. This release marks a milestone for Texas distilling, Donnis Todd and our entire team.”

Where can I buy it?

Garrison Brothers Bottled-in-Bond will be available at online retailers, restaurants, bars, and liquor stores by the end of March for the suggested retail price of $99.99.

These days, it's not enough to pour a product. What splashes in the glass needs a good story, preferably one involving genuine sustainability efforts or a cool new hop variety. Moreover, that liquid becomes all the more intriguing when it reflects its origin, whether that's a coastal gin made with local botanicals and seaweed or a seasonal Georgian beer brewed with ripe peaches.

Wine may have capitalized on the concept of terroir but it certainly didn't invent it. There's an element of place in all of agriculture, meaning there are distinctive flavors tied to Nevada-grown whiskey grains and Washington state hops, destined to be showcased in an India Pale Ale.

Rotisserie chicken is back and better than ever
Slow-turned birds are back, baby
Rotisserie chicken at ROSTO.

What goes around comes around, again and again. Certainly the culinary world knows as much, just consider the slow food movement or even a good Cosmopolitan cocktail recipe, back in its best forms since, well, the 90s. The latest thing to reemerge is slow-cooked chicken on a spit.

Yes, rotisserie is back and arguably better than ever. Like most things, the epicenter of the movement is taking place in New York City, but it's spread to other food-friendly towns, from Portland to Providence. Maybe we never wanted to let the style go. Maybe we're reliant on a relatively cheap protein in this wobbly economy. Regardless, there's no denying the deeply comforting sensation that is chowing down on some.
