Why Gifted Pour recommends it
Texas bourbon makes a gift with a story, and this single barrel bottling from Garrison Brothers in the Texas Hill Country carries that story well. It is distilled from corn, wheat and malted barley, then matured in new charred American oak for a minimum of four years, and the glass shows it: deep amber with copper highlights, a nose of toasted oak, caramel, vanilla and warm baking spice, and a palate where cinnamon meets a soft wheat sweetness. The finish lingers on oak and spice with a last touch of caramel. It suits the bourbon drinker who likes to sit with a pour, a Texan living far from home, or a colleague marking a promotion. The recipient can take it neat in a tulip glass, loosen it with a few drops of water to bring up the vanilla, or stir it into an Old Fashioned or Manhattan. It is a bottle that rewards slow attention, which is exactly what a considered gift should do.

- Pecan pie — Caramel, vanilla and baking spice in the bourbon mirror the dessert's buttery, toasty sweetness.
- Father's Day gift — A single barrel Texas bourbon with lingering oak and spice gives a dad who enjoys a slow neat pour something to savor.
Questions about this bottle
What is this bourbon made from?
It is distilled from a mash bill of corn, wheat and malted barley. The wheat shows up on the palate as a soft sweetness alongside caramel, toasted oak, vanilla and cinnamon.
How long is it aged, and in what kind of barrel?
It is aged a minimum of four years in new charred American oak barrels, which accounts for its deep amber color and the toasted oak and caramel character on the nose and palate.
What does it taste like?
Expect toasted oak and caramel on the nose with vanilla and warm baking spice. The palate brings caramel, toasted oak, vanilla, cinnamon and soft wheat sweetness, and the finish lingers with oak, spice and a touch of caramel.
How should the recipient drink it?
Neat at room temperature in a tulip glass highlights the oak and caramel, and a few drops of water open up the vanilla and baking spice. It also works over one large cube or in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan made with 2 parts bourbon to 1 part sweet vermouth.
