Garrison Brothers Distillery announced the release of its first Bottled in Bond Bourbon, a six-year-old, 100-proof Texas bourbon made from Texas grains and proofed with pure Hill Country rainwater.

On Saturday Feb. 28, in celebration of Texas Independence Day, 2,000 bottles of Garrison Brothers Bottled in Bond will be available first come first serve at the distillery in Hye, Texas during their Bottled in Bond, A 100 Proof Texas Celebration event.

Distilled in Fall 2019, Garrison Brothers Bottle in Bond, becoming the 10^th bourbon in the brand’s portfolio, followed the path and process protected by the 1897 U.S. law that was set to demand and preserve clarity in the national spirit. It must be made from one distilling season, one distiller, one distillery; aged in bonded storage; and bottled at 100 proof.

“From day one, Garrison Brothers has cooked our own mash, fermented our own distillers beer, pot-distilled, and aged our bourbon right here in Hye, Texas,” Dan Garrison, Founder of Garrison Brothers Distillery, said in a news release. “There’s no BS here. For six summers, this whiskey moved in and out of the wood, tightening its flavor and deepening its color. We proofed it down to 100 and put our name on it. This release marks a milestone for Texas distilling, Donnis Todd and our entire team.” 

Bottled in Bond is a promise kept. It carries the hallmarks of place and process — sweet mash grain, open-air fermentations, and six summers of Hill Country heat, forging oak into flavor. Built to sip neat and ready for classic cocktails, it is bottled at 50% Alc/Vol. 

“One run, one place, one team,” Donnis Todd, Master Distiller, Garrison Brothers, added. “Then we let Texas do what Texas does. Hot days. Cool nights. Oak inhaling and exhaling until the whiskey got bold, and layered, and honest. We were not chasing ‘bottled-in-bond.’ We were chasing the best bottled-in-bond bourbon ever made.” 

Suggested retail price for Bottled in Bond is $99.99 and will be available on e-commerce and across finer retail, restaurant, and bars by end of March 2026. Garrison Brothers premium Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey is sold nationwide and across five countries.
