Liquor Brands in Texas Hill Country

Two to six barrels are commingled and then bottled at cask strength to offer whiskey aficionados an opportunity to proof to their own liking. After all, whiskey is dynamic, and as such the team encourages Barrel Proof fans to play with water and ice to find the perfect measurement of water for individual palates. Different measures of water or ice will influence the character of the whiskey by silencing some aromatics and allowing others to pop. Each batch is unique and can be identified by the batch number on the label.

Milam & Greene Port Finished Rye Whiskey is brought from Indiana to Texas where it is batched in the Blanco rickhouse and finished in old Port wine casks from Portugal. The Texan sun influences the rate and strength of flavor imparted into the whiskey. Some casks take longer than others, so the expert team tastes the whiskey finishing the in Port wine casks regularly to determine when optimal flavors are achieved. Casks are then batched together and proofed before bottling.
