  • By Jordan Moskal
  • Combining Texas heat with barrels from Spain results in a bourbon that is surprisingly sweet for an Oloroso sherry finish.

  • The Daily Pour
  • By David Morrow
  • This is a very good bourbon from Garrison. It’s quite oaky and tannic, and the Oloroso complements the distillate quite well. I slightly prefer the PX of these two Ranch Reserve releases, but they’re both excellent.

  • Nose:

    Sweet nose. That prominent leathery, wheaty garrison profile is here, but the sherry is at the forefront. Blueberry cobbler, mint, nutmeg, fresh-baked rolls.

  • Taste:

    The oloroso comes through strong here, with notes of buttered brioche, chestnut, raisins and blueberry. It pairs with classic garrison tobacco and leather and quite a bit of tannin.

  • Finish:

    The finish opens with cinnamon, tobacco and raisin, fading into classic garrison leather.

  • Overall:

    This is a very good bourbon from Garrison. It’s quite oaky and tannic, and the Oloroso complements the distillate quite well. I slightly prefer the PX of these two Ranch Reserve releases, but they’re both excellent.
