Funny story, while at their distillery I had sampled their product and didn’t care for it. There was a guy standing next to me and he asked me what I thought about and I was very truthful and told him I wouldn’t buy a bottle because it wasn’t to my liking. Come to find out that he was one of the owners. 😂😂🤣🤣
That bottle of Four Roses Single Barrel 100 proof up on the shelf is one of the best series of Barrel Bourbons....EVER!!!! I have several, and they are all great.
My friends and I went to a tasting one year, they had Garrison Brothers there. We all decided drinking it was like walking into a saloon and immediately getting punched in the face, then the guy that punched you buy you a drink after you stood up.
It’s because it doesn’t cool and breathe through the wood to mellow the harsh taste. Kinda of like the New England bourbons which are very light in taste. They don’t expand into the wood as much. The middle of the us like Kentucky get hot and then cool which gives it a better expansion and contraction.
You need to try Milam & Greene. Partly made and fully blended and bootled in Blanco, Texas. It's some good stuff and uses that texas taste to thier advantage when thier master blender does her thing.
I'll be doing a bicycle ride down in Hill Country beginning at the end of next week, and on one of our days, we will be stopping at Garrison Brothers. Where I will get several bottles since I love their bourbon!
Lady bird and honey dew option is where its at. Their main line is too oak forward but the honey infusion tames it and same with the cognac finish honey whiskey by Garrison Brothers.
I have met the family at a tasting, they are very nice people with a lot of passion for whiskey. They have a great line up of whiskey, from an organic honey whiskey to a bourbon barrel whiskey. Some bottles come and go in my bar but you can bet your ass I have a bottle of Garrison Brothers in there at all times.
Have you tried Bendt Whiskey? It's another Texas brand. Come with me on this journey...lol Bendt tastes the way that a Texas summer breeze smells. It's just heavenly. ❤️ Thank you for your videos!
I use alot of your short reviews to help me decide on new bourbons to try, im from kentucky so i tend to have the majority at my disposal. Give me your thoughts on blade and bow?
@@HH-le1vi So I was right, except it’s a warehouse not a barn. I just read up on it a bit and it’s not just the heat but the temperature fluctuations that give it its distinct character.
That’s my favorite go to bourbon 🥃. I love driving down to the Distillery there in Hye Texas and just hanging out with them get autographs play some games and do the tour it never gets old!! They also have awesome veterans discounts also.
@@PtownSoccer15 and yet regional requirements are a thing for champagne and scotch so why is bourbon different? That’s a rhetorical question by the way.
I'd like to try that. Over the years, I've been trying to max out on flavor. Something like that would be right what I'd enjoy. Sort of how some people like limburger and blue cheese, and other top of the list flavors.
As a mostly Scottish Malt and Irish Potstill fan, bourbon tends to be too simple for my palate. Not saying Bourbon is bad, but far from memorable or exciting when compared to my usual picks. Texas, specifically Balcones is the exception. I prefer their Rye and malt, but I'm guessing the combo of Texas and potstills is what it takes to get Bourbon towards my palate. But I'm always open to suggestions when it comes to a more complex and interesting bourbon in general.
As a scotch drinker myself, i actually prefer that kind of flavour profile haha its so weird when you describe it that way. Bourbons can be too sweet for me most of the time, but once in a while i find a great bourbon. Plus i much prefer the pricing on bourbon 😂
I love bourbon. And I don’t like garrison brothers at all. Just my personal preference. I way rather prefer “TX” whiskey if I’m drinking Texas juice. I tend to feel like most Texas whiskeys are young because they age so fast in the heat. The heat puts off an extremely smoky flavor that can be off putting. I’ve seen a lot of under 4 year bottles come out of Texas, and I think because of the weather there it really limits them in outdoor aging facilities because it’s so hot. It tends to make their whiskey feel a little bit young and thin and very wood forward. Just my opinion.
I left some johnny w. Black label in the garage for a few months and I drank some with some pineapple juice and I couldn't even taste the juice or the alcohol. Just the notes

You should do a blender video of your own tasting notes on this whiskey
Ah yes, tobbaco, oak, mesquite, and old shoe
Exactly what I thought
Who wants to eat a shoe 😂
Nothing tastier than leather, oak & tobacco 😂😂
Goes nicely with a pair of Cowboy boots, a Stetson, and a cigar.
And an old shoe! 😂
Hmmm yes, tastes like grandpa
So.... A chain smoking lumberjacks shoe?
@@TheAstroProblem 😂😂😂

Tough love is a good thing
As a bartender, I served the Garrison Family their own whiskey years ago. Very Kind family and grateful we served their product.
Wow...I'd love to have some stories like this. I live in Spain though...what we're good at is wine, though 😂
Yeah, we went to their distillery a few years back for a bachelor party type thing and the owner bought us all drinks, very nice people
Garrison Brothers is my jam.
Garrison's high proof is what you need to try - all of them

Amen 👍😉

Thats so accurate for dry, dark and oaky whiskey.
Oh yeah! Old shoe, my fav.
This is what I like about this channel, @Brewzle, you take the time to educate, as well as entertain! Thanks!
Love garrison
Texas is just built different y’all…
Mmmmm old shoe, my favourite
😂😂😂😂
One of my favorite Bourbons!
The effort this guy puts editing, getting different camera angles, etc, so under appreciated. Earned another subscriber
Gotta love some Guadalupe and Cowboy from them.
garrison brothers is amazing!
Live about 5 miles from their distillery. Good place. Good whiskey
doesn't sound to good
I’ve taken a tour at their distillery a few times. Their Honeydew is really good.
My local spirit store got a barrel pick of this and I absolutely loved it.
I see Garrison Brothers here in SW PA, may have to give it a try.
Recently discovered your page. I have learned a lot. Great stuff!
Welcome aboard!

Thank you, I live in Houston, and I feel exactly the same way ... Love my Garrison's !!!
Thanks for giving us some love! You are the internet’s whiskey guru!
I love old shoe flavor
😂😂😂😂
Leather …yes… like a saddle on a sweaty horse. I actually liked it.
Just starting to get into bourbon and I really love these reviews. Helping me find what I enjoy
You know I love this channel, never had a sip of whiskey in my life and don’t plan to, but still love it
Have you tried Bendt Whiskey? It's another Texas brand. Come with me on this journey...lol
Bendt tastes the way that a Texas summer breeze smells. It's just heavenly. ❤️

Preach
Garrison Brothers for the win. Seriously, get it, try it, you’ll love it.
I use alot of your short reviews to help me decide on new bourbons to try, im from kentucky so i tend to have the majority at my disposal. Give me your thoughts on blade and bow?
Nothing but good ol ky bourbon for myself.
I just picked up this same Garrison offering for $160 (MN). The first pour was pretty good.
Tobacco, mesquite and whiskey love it
When I first tried garrison brothers it tasted like what a cavenders or a boot barn smells like
Have you tried High West Campfire? If not, definitely worth it!
Have you tried bison ridge Canadian whisky?
Get a bottle of Balcones Brimstone. Strongest whiskey I've ever had.
I'm sure it hits like their power grid.
You should try liquorish whisky
yep them extreme climate conditions in Tx do some um............interesting.......things to whiskey
Garrisons small batch is my favorite. But then again I’m from Texas and we like ours stout
@brewzle. Try brothers bond! I want to see what a masters palate is able to extract from that bourbon!
And this is why Texas whiskeys should be a separate category of wiskey, like Tennessee wiskeys. I am from Texas, and Texas whiskey is my favorite!
Gotta try that one, much love from Texas!
You mention the heat. Is the whiskey aged in a hot sun baked barn in the middle of the scrub land? Genuinely asking.
It's stuck in a non climate controlled warehouse for storage.
@@HH-le1vi So I was right, except it’s a warehouse not a barn. I just read up on it a bit and it’s not just the heat but the temperature fluctuations that give it its distinct character.

Recently went for the first time and it was a great experience. Definitely will be going back again.
Bourbon comes from Kentucky so this is just whiskey.
@@blakedavis2447 being made in Kentucky is not a requirement to be considered bourbon
@@PtownSoccer15 and yet regional requirements are a thing for champagne and scotch so why is bourbon different? That’s a rhetorical question by the way.
@@blakedavis2447 you can go look it up, bourbon is able to be made in other states.
I’m from Texas and live me some bourbon ! Ima have to try this . Pendletons is pretty good.
Still nursing a bottle of Garrison Brother's Balmorhea. Honestly one of the most complex bourbons I've ever had.
Goes well with a cigar!
I'd like to try that. Over the years, I've been trying to max out on flavor. Something like that would be right what I'd enjoy. Sort of how some people like limburger and blue cheese, and other top of the list flavors.

Milam & Greene 🤌
I love watching these videos pretending to understand what is being said. Something nice to watch in my opinion
It’s not really the heat but the massive changes in temperature, which happens daily in Texas.
I get that strong Leather Oak in Woodford Double Oak.
Wondering what wisky is good with cigars?
I love this cause I learn about alcohol I’ve had or haven’t had before
Have you reviewed Iron Root?
As a scotch drinker myself, i actually prefer that kind of flavour profile haha its so weird when you describe it that way.
Bourbons can be too sweet for me most of the time, but once in a while i find a great bourbon. Plus i much prefer the pricing on bourbon 😂
If you can get it, try Texas 254 whiskey. It's cheap but tasty
Devil's River does amazing bourbon and they're also out of Texas
I love this stuff.
Im fro. Texas,and i really want to support Texas distilleries. Unfortunately i have not found one that i really like
Have you reviewed TX?
Holy damn I need this
Love these videos, you just got a new subscriber, keep em coming please:) cheers from Denmark

I deliver Dr pepper to garrison brothers distillery it's an awesome place
Try Arizona whiskey. It gets 115° in Phoenix
God Bless Texas.
Would you review the slipknot no9 whiskey
Where's the love for scotch? I would love to see some scotch reviews
Please run the range from Garrison - I would like to hear your thoughts on them all.
This guy probably says double hue😅😊
❤❤😂🎉
Sounds like it would go good with a Olivia Connecticut cigar
Would love to see your review. Hayner whiskey they just recently started their distillery backup after a hundred years
Have you tried the Clan Campbell
Would like to see something out of the opposite spectrum as Texas, like Colorado whiskey maybe?
Which brand?
@@Brewzle Breckinridge, stranahans?
Love your videos 😊
Try Barrel Vantage
I left some johnny w. Black label in the garage for a few months and I drank some with some pineapple juice and I couldn't even taste the juice or the alcohol. Just the notes
Try Balconies single malt. They're out of Waco.
So with that said. Are there any companies in Texas that might have some in a barrel aged 10 years or so?
Can you mix energy drink with fireball
If you could get good irish whiskeys like 25 year or 12 year jameson, teelings, Bushmills and dubliner lord I think you would love them
In staying with the theme how about a review of TX Straight Bourbon oooooor perhaps Balcones Texas Blue Corn Bourbon
You should try the crown Royal reserve
Or the 15 year old crown Royal that just came out
Take natural food flavoring (i personally take plum extract and vanilla extract), put 1 single lil drop of each ina glass of garrisons. Youre welcome.
Have you thought of trying the texas 254 blend?
Have you ever had Rebecca Creek double barrel bourbon?? Delicious!!!
Can you please please review some Single Malt brands from India.. the should be available with select retails in the US..
I've been looking for more bourbons to pair with whiskey. Sounds like a good one
Wait what
Cool video
