Driftwood will soon gain a new distillery and gathering space as the Briggs Distilling Co. team gears up for its grand opening.
A family affair
Briggs Distilling Co. will open this October on land with family ties.
"Briggs Distilling was born from family and built for families," Vice President of Marketing Bailey Briggs said in a news release. "The distillery stands on family land, just steps from where generations of our relatives have lived and gathered. For more than twenty years, our family has called the Texas Hill Country home, spending holidays, birthdays and long summer days on the river together."
A closer look
The distillery offers three custom spirits: Straight Rye Whiskey, Heritage Reserve Bourbon and Wheated Bourbon. The Straight Rye Whiskey has notes of spice and herbs; the Heritage Reserve Bourbon is medium-bodied with notes of caramel and leather; and the Wheated Bourbon is sweeter with fruit notes.
