What Defines This Bottle
Single Barrel
Whiskey drawn and bottled from one individual cask rather than mingled across many; a bottling method, not a mash bill or flavor profile of its own.
A bottling choice, not a production step upstream of it -- the whiskey ages and is distilled the same way as the distillery's other releases, then gets pulled from one specific barrel rather than blended with others before bottling. Bottle matches here come from a bottle's own name explicitly naming it a single barrel release, not an independent barrel-count field -- see this style's own Explore Bottles section for that caveat. See Rickhouse Science for how a barrel's own floor level and rick location can make one single barrel taste different from its neighbors.

Production Details
Disclosed production notes from Garrison Brothers Distillery -- structured, sourced facts, not a tasting review.
- Water Source
- Rainwater harvested on-site commingled with local Edwards Plateau limestone-filtered aquifer water.
- Cooperage
- Charred New American White Oak (custom Char #3 and Char #4 from Kelvin Cooperage and Independent Stave Company), utilizing 15-gallon, 30-gallon, and traditional 53-gallon barrels.
- Warehouse Notes
- Non-climate-controlled barns regularly exceed 120°F in summer, creating severe internal barrel pressure that cycles liquid deep into the staves while driving angel's share losses upwards of 10-13% annually.
