Garrison Brothers is located about an hour west of Austin in the small Texas town of Hye.  It is the first legal whiskey distillery in Texas and was started by Dan Garrison and his wife Nancy.  The weather in Hye makes for a truly unique bourbon that must be tasted to be believed.  Dan Garrison doesn't stop at just good bourbon, he has also founded several charities and associations to give back to the communities.
