Garrison Brothers Balmorhea Texas Straight Bourbon

Very complex and different but interesting. First sip had a lot of oak/leather notes but the second larger sip had a lot of spices mixed in. Definitely need more than a sample to truly get this one

Very complex, full-flavored, deep and well-balanced. Caramel apple, oak, tobacco, leather, menthol. Both sweet and spicy. Taste lingers a long time.

Big and bold. Sweet brown sugar, oak, leather, mint, long finish. A good bit of heat for 115pf

Loads of flavor, one helluva kick. 4.1

Maybe my all time fave bourbon. I love the garrison bros profile. Sweet, rich, oaky, mahogany, dark. Just awesome

Various bottles from Garrison Bros have finally started to spring up at the local shops lately. This one seemed to catch my eye so I decided to pull the trigger. My second pour a week apart and I must say I'm thoroughly impressed. The slightly spicy nose had a lovely bouquet of wood, leather, brown sugar, and chocolate. The wood factor translated nicely into the tasting notes along with an interesting melding between red hot candies, corn, cocoa, and said leather. A touch of ethanol heat at first that transitioned to a comfortable warming later and throughout. The finish was fairly enduring and oily which I enjoyed. I'm definitely a fan of this Texas brown water. Looking forward to what else they have in store. For now, I'll take my time with this fine entry.
