Named for the Laguna Madre, a hypersaline lagoon along the Texas Gulf Coast. Garrison Brothers is Texas’s first legal bourbon distillery.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLimousin oak is the same French oak used in Cognac and Bordeaux barrel aging — tighter grain than American oak, contributing subtler vanilla and more pronounced tannin and dried fruit character. Using it as a finish on Texas bourbon — already bolder and more wood-forward than Kentucky bourbon due to Texas’s extreme temperature swings — adds a layer of European oak complexity on top of the aggressive American oak primary aging.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel, dried fruit, toasted oak, and Texas-specific warm spice. \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich and bold — vanilla, dark fruit, cinnamon, and Limousin oak tannin. \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, warming, and complex.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Garrison Brothers, Hye, Texas — \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Texas Straight Bourbon, Limousin oak finish — \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon\u003c\/a\u003e at Wooden Cork.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garrison Brothers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42900776419399,"sku":"Y 851756002448","price":799.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/GarrisonBrotherLagunaMadre_370x_3c6af2aa-f209-4003-9f07-0339a4026ba6.png?v=1782413629","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/garrison-brothers-laguna-madre-bourbon-whiskey","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
