We write a lot about Texas whiskey for a very good reason—there’s a lot of good Texas whiskey to write about made by distilleries like Still Austin and Garrison Brothers, among others. Another that we’ve covered before is TX Whiskey, and it’s making some news again with the latest in its Experimental Series, a bourbon called Triple Cask that is matured in three different types of barrels.

TX Whiskey was founded in Fort Worth in 2010, and is now located on the grounds of an old golf course called the Whiskey Ranch just outside of downtown. The distillery’s core release is TX Blended Whiskey, which includes some sourced spirits, but the distillery’s in-house-produced bourbon and rye are really the ones that whiskey fans should pay attention to. These include a bunch of cask-finished bourbons that spend time in sherry, Cognac, and port barrels, a few bottled-in-bond expressions, and a couple of barrel-proof releases.

There’s also the Experimental Series which comes out a few times every year—Triple Cask is the third so far in 2026 following the excellent Vino de Naranja (bourbon and rye blend finished in Spanish wine casks) and the seven-year-old Full Proof Rye (bottled at 120 proof). That makes Triple Cask the 17th Experimental Series release, and while we were not able to try this whiskey yet, we have the details to share.

Triple Cask starts with TX Whiskey straight bourbon that was produced at the distillery in Fort Worth and aged for an undisclosed amount of time. That whiskey is then finished in three different types of barrels: American oak, French oak, and rum. “Triple Cask was created to highlight how each barrel can shape the whiskey in a different way,” said master distiller and blender Craig Blair in a statement. “From the structure of American oak to the softer notes of French oak and the richness of rum casks, this expression brings together three distinct influences in one bold, layered sip.”

We did not get to try this whiskey yet, but the official tasting notes describe toasted oak, plum, orchard fruit, vanilla, and warm spiced rum on the nose, followed by caramel sweetness, oak, and dark fruit on the palate. Like all Experimental Series releases, this whiskey comes in a smaller 375-ml bottle. Just 1,200 are available to purchase at the distillery as of June 13 (SRP $40), along with other TX Whiskey expressions and possibly past Experimental Series releases.
