Next up from my short Vegas trip was this interesting pour from the Garrison Brothers. Heard good things about this Texas sourced bourbon. My first impression was the very different nose compared to their Kentucky and Tennessee counterparts. Lots of grass and earth up front with hints of honey and malts. The taste was fairly similar and accompanied further by notes of wood, syrup, peppery essence, barley, fruit, and some leather. Definitely not as sweet as most of the ones I've had over time. Which has most likely programmed my palate a bit and rate it somewhat lower than usual. Not to say this isn't good by any means. I sipped and finished 2 ounces of this without a problem. Curious to see what other variations these bros have to offer.
