Garrison Brothers Distillery

The distillery is situated in the picturesque Texas Hill Country, near Austin. This region's climate and natural resources contribute to the distinct flavor profile of Garrison Brothers bourbons. Dan Garrison, a native Texan, founded the distillery with a vision to create authentic, Texas-made bourbon whiskey. The distillery began operations in 2006 and was one of the first legal whiskey distilleries in Texas since Prohibition.

Garrison Brothers is known for its commitment to crafting small-batch, high-quality bourbon. They use traditional techniques, including copper pot stills and open-top wooden fermentation tanks, to create their whiskey. The distillery sources its corn, wheat, and barley from Texas farms, emphasizing the use of local and sustainable ingredients. This local sourcing is a significant part of their "from grain to glass" philosophy.

Texas experiences a hot and arid climate, which leads to more significant temperature fluctuations than in traditional bourbon-producing states. This climate accelerates the aging process, resulting in a unique and robust flavor profile for Garrison Brothers bourbon. Garrison Brothers produces various bourbon expressions, including their flagship "Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey," which is known for its rich and bold character. They also release special limited-edition bottlings.

Over the years, Garrison Brothers bourbons have received numerous awards and accolades, cementing their reputation as a leading craft distillery. The distillery is known for its involvement in local communities and supporting various charitable causes.
