However, the Single Barrel bottles are not just intended for retail stores. The barrels were offered first to Texas retail stores and now, after a successful launch, the limited quantity that remains will be available for purchase in every state where Garrison Brothers is sold. Liquor stores and their customers must agree to acquire every bottle that a particular barrel yields. Each barrel is projected to yield anywhere from 48 to 81 bottles of bourbon, depending on the Angel’s Share losses. The distillery culled 342 fifteen-gallon barrels from its enormous inventory of aging bourbon barrels for this project. The other unique aspect of the Single Barrel is the way it is being sold. Garrison explains, “We have invited liquor store owners and managers from all over the country to visit us in Hye, taste samples from a number of barrels, and hand-select the particular barrel of their liking.” The Single Barrel Bourbon at every store will have a different taste profile and different flavor complexity from the one at the liquor store just a few miles away, each barrel has its own personality and has individual effects on the bourbon aging inside. “Last year, our Single Barrel bourbon outsold our Flagship bourbon in our gift shop by a ratio of 2 to 1, despite a 20% higher price tag.” “The response to our Single Barrel Bourbon has been overwhelming,” said owner Dan Garrison. To date, the Single Barrel has only been available from the distillery’s gift shop in Hye, Texas, but now liquor stores across the country will be offering it to their bourbon connoisseur customers and the on-premise accounts they serve. The Single Barrel Bourbon from Garrison Brothers is a three-year-old, 94-proof big brother to its flagship Garrison Brothers Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey and just like its predecessor, it is made from organic Panhandle corn, soft red winter wheat, two-row malted barley and pure, clean Hill Country rainwater. Garrison Brothers Distillery, Texas’ first legal whiskey distillery and the maker of Garrison Brothers Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey, is pleased to announce that it will be introducing its Single Barrel Bourbon, which was released first in Texas, nationally to all states where Garrison Brothers is sold.
