WE DIDN’T WANT TO MAKE JUST ANY BOURBON, WE WANTED TO MAKE THE BEST BOURBON EVER MADE.
Welcome to Garrison Brothers, home of the first legal whiskey distillery in Texas. Here, our premium ingredients, meticulous process and scorching Texas heat yields a spirit impossible to forget.
Our Bourbon
Each and every bottle of Garrison Brothers is milled, cooked, distilled, barreled and aged at our distillery in Hye, Texas. And with expressions ranging from 80 to 140-proof, there’s something for every bourbon lover to enjoy.
Our Distillery
Atop a wildflower-speckled hill, amid the sounds of buzzing cicadas and trotting horses, the smell of sweet corn mash and the feel of sunshine against your skin, sits Garrison Brothers Distillery. The birthplace of the first-ever bourbon to be made outside of Kentucky.
