Garrison Brothers Boot Flask Bourbon Whiskey
Garrison Brothers Boot Flask Bourbon Whiskey packs the distillery's acclaimed Small Batch Texas Straight Bourbon into a flat, ergonomically designed 375mL bottle made to slip into a boot, backpack or coat pocket — bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV). It's the same sweet-mash bourbon aged at least three years in new American white oak under the brutal Texas Hill Country heat, where custom extra-thick-staved barrels and ~40% angel's share produce a darker, richer, fuller whiskey than Kentucky's climate allows. Distilled, barreled and bottled by Garrison Brothers Distillery in Hye, Texas — the first legal bourbon distillery in the state. Order the Boot Flask online at Del Mesa Liquor.

Legendary Texas Bourbon, Travel-Ready
The Boot Flask is the same award-winning Small Batch liquid — the distillery's flagship, scored 86–87 by Whisky Advocate with a Silver at the 2013 San Francisco World Spirits Competition — in the most Texan presentation imaginable. The intense heat accelerates maturation dramatically, so three Texas years drink like far more. See more bourbon whiskey and the Garrison Brothers collection at Del Mesa Liquor.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: amber-crimson, like a Texas sunset. Nose: golden delicious apple drizzled with honey, sweet floral verbena, fresh-cut grass, saddle leather and cinnamon. Palate: tart orange hard candy and lemon gumdrops giving way to yellow pound cake, vanilla and smoky baking spices. Finish: long and complex — smoky county-fair caramel apple with walnuts and cinnamon.
How to Enjoy
Neat, to appreciate the full Texas character — or as the base of a bold bourbon-forward cocktail. The flask format makes it a natural for tailgates, concerts and gifting.
