Garrison Brothers Guadalupe Texas Straight Bourbon (750ml)

Texas straight bourbon from Garrison Brothers Distillery showcases what happens when bourbon production moves south of the traditional Kentucky heartland. Made in the Hill Country near Fredericksburg, this expression carries the legal requirements of any American straight bourbon (at least 51% corn, aged in new charred oak barrels) but filtered through a different terroir and climate, where the Texas heat works on the spirit differently than cooler northern aging houses.

The result drinks with a character shaped by that warm-weather maturation, expect a fuller body and more assertive oak interaction than you might find in slower-aged bourbons from cooler regions. It's a spirit that rewards neat pours or a single cube, where you can trace how the local conditions have molded the grain and wood together. The Guadalupe expression stands as a statement about American bourbon's reach beyond its traditional boundaries.
