Garrison Brothers Bottled In Bond Bourbon Whiskey
Garrison Brothers Bottled in Bond Bourbon Whiskey – 100 Proof Texas Straight Bourbon
Garrison Brothers Bottled in Bond Bourbon Whiskey is one of the most significant and authentic expressions in the Garrison Brothers lineup — a Texas straight bourbon that meets the strict requirements of the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897, one of the oldest and most rigorous quality standards in American spirits history. For Garrison Brothers — already one of the most uncompromising craft distilleries in America — achieving Bottled in Bond status is a powerful statement of quality, transparency, and authenticity.
To carry the Bottled in Bond designation, a bourbon must meet four strict federal requirements: it must be the product of one distillery, produced in one distillation season, aged for a minimum of four years in a federally bonded warehouse, and bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% ABV). Garrison Brothers' Bottled in Bond meets every one of these requirements — delivering a bold, full-proof Texas straight bourbon of exceptional character and integrity.
