Given all these places are using Hill Country Spring water, you wonder about the future of the aquifer! The Vodka disappears behind the strong sugar and smooth tea flavors, which would make this proof drink almost too easy on a hot summer day.
Be careful. Kelly Railean of Railean Distillers creates her Rum in the small town of San Leon, a place known more for its fishing than its fine liquors. That may change. She makes three different styles of small-batch premium Rums, all from un-sulphured molasses. My personal favorite is her least expensive — Railean White Rum. They recommend it for a mixing Rum, but give it a try with just some ice and a wedge of lime. It has delicious, fruity aromas that are so nice by themselves.
The top of the line is Small Cask Reserve , a single selected barrel of Reserve XO that has twice as much age and is perfect for sipping. Thus the simple name El Perico. Its flavors are spot on for Blue Agave fans with the light fruitiness and white pepper aromas you expect in the south of the border products.
Eyebrows were raised around the state when Dan Garrison started telling folks that he was not going to just make Bourbon, he was going to make the best Bourbon on earth. As the folks in Kentucky rolled over in their graves, Garrison set out to deliver on his objective. Unfortunately, he makes very small batches of it and takes his time letting each batch age for years, so not that many people have had the chance to actually try the final product, Garrison Brothers Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
So how does it taste? Does it deserve the hype? Well, there is definitely some salesmanship going on here, but the truth is, it is really nice Bourbon. In his free time, Jason volunteers with organizations related to hunger, homeless, and education such as Habitat for Humanity.

It's also mainly made from corn, sourced from Indiana farms, and the brand prides itself on using only natural ingredients. As well, it's made in small batches for extra care and all of the processes are done locally at a large Texas distillery. Deep Eddy's Original Vodka is a great introduction, since it makes it so easy to taste the brand's commitment to quality. Working your way through the rest of flavor line, however, is a fun exploration of drinkable creativity, one that guarantees anyone can find their favorite variety.
According to VinePair , Deep Eddy actually launched in with its signature Sweet Tea flavor, and not the original bottle, as one might expect.
The Sweet Tea pick is infused with Indonesian black tea , and gives a nod to both the brand's Southern roots and co-founder Clayton Christopher's other beverage venture, Sweet Leaf Tea Co. Lest you think the variety stops there, the brand also has a whole webage devoted to cocktail recipes, with all of its flavored vodkas adding fresh twists to any home bartender's standard repertoire. Many of the major vodka brands with the kind of presence that Deep Eddy has don't always have tasting rooms, which can feel more characteristic of smaller, more craft operations.
