Garrison Brothers Guadalupe (2024 Release)

After a tasting tour at Garrison Brothers, I was very surprised with the quality of their Bourbon. All of their whiskys are very good! But this one finished at a Port cask is incredible! The 2024 release delivered 10500 bottles and mine is #4289. It come with a dark amber color, very thick legs in a full body and 107 proof. On the nose, we immediately get toffee, caramel, milk chocolate and a hint of cherry. The palate brings more of the wheat and malted barley to play with a french toast feeling bringing a bread toast mixed with caramel and clove together. The caramel and toffee overpowers a little. In the end, there’s a cinnamon and nutmeg finish, so the spices kick in. Very complex, delicious and very rich! Worth every penny!

An outstanding, Wheated Bourbon Whiskey by Garrison Brothers Distillery in Hye, Texas crafted by with their Small Batch Bourbon aged for a minimum of 4 years in American white oak barrels then finished for an additional 2 to 4 years in port casks; before being bottled at 107 proof. It has an aromatic birth with notes of grain, wood, fruits, nuts, herbs & spices; while a rich & creamy life adds notes of strawberry preserve on a warm butter biscuit, lavender honey, caramel, raspberry & plum; while a long & hot death adds notes of oak, cinnamon, chocolate & toasted coffee beans.
