Garrison Brothers Guadalupe Port Cask Finished (2024 Release), 53.5%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2024 ● Reviewer: David Fleming ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Very dark amber in color, which is fairly distinctive and apparent. Fortified wine notes of earthy dark sweetness, with torched marshmallow, dunnage warehouse floor, and spent barrel on the nose. The palate shows some rancio—adding an almost rustic but appealing presence—dark baked berries, chocolate, and sherry cooking wine. A lot of interesting flavors, including some very intriguing burnt berry notes on the finish, but overall unusually tasty.
