Authentic Texas bourbon distillery with tours, tastings, and food
"Partnering with Uchiko for the Hai (Hospitality) takes Hye (Texas) event on Thursday, May 22 at 6:45 p.m., the distillery will provide six courses of drinks to accompany a 10-course sushi-focused menu. The collaboration emphasizes whiskey-driven pairings across the tasting, and tickets are $250 per person with a two-person minimum." - Courtney E. Smith
"The Texas distillery — one of the state’s first — is all about bourbons, available for drinking at its on-site Whiskey Shack, which also serves up cocktails and food such as tri-tip steak tacos, chili, burgers, and sandwiches. There are also special bourbon tastings available. There are outdoor areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"A Hye-based whiskey distillery is hosting a cocktail-making contest called the Bourbon Brawl on June 30 at the Fair Market from 6–10 p.m.; the event features bartenders from across the state (with no Austin representatives) and tickets are $30." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Garrison Brothers’s Cowboy Bourbon is a family-owned Texas whiskey that I find delicious and reliably excellent — a staple for anyone’s shelf and a great gift choice despite being pricier than some options." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Spirits: Whiskey Book ahead for a “sit-and-sip” tour here in the quiet town of Hye. Tours are scheduled online ($10 per guest) and include a tour and tasting. Since opening the first legal Texas whiskey distillery in 2010, Garrison Brothers have won numerous awards. It remains focused solely on bourbon-style whiskey, with limited releases like Balmorhea (twice-barreled bourbon) and Estacado (port-finished bourbon) in high demand. Tours and tastings: Wednesday through Sunday, by appointment only at $10 per person" - Tom Thornton
