Garrison Brothers Cowboy (2023 Release), 70.45%

Price: 250 Issue: Spring 2024 Reviewer: Shane English Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey

Bottled at hazmat proof, this is as untamed as the Wild West and, without water, as withering as the desert sun. The nose is dense and spicy with cinnamon, sarsaparilla, dark chocolate, and cloves. Even with ample water added, it is rich and oily, with prominent oak, lemon, orange, and black pepper flavors. The finish is long, with vanilla sweetness, cinnamon tang, and parched oak.
