Decided to be a day tripper on Saturday as it was a beautiful day for a drive.
Friends had told us about stopping at Sixth Street Bourbon on their way to Austin while traveling on 290 Hwy.
Lots of free parking available.
Entered the place and we were greeted by a smiling employee and some water!
This place is a great secret to exploring.
They have 4 different bourbons that they give you FREE samples. And they have several others that they only charge $3.00 per sample.
Husband & I each had a taste of the 4 year & the 6 year which was a great way to become familiar with their bourbon. We then decided to order some drinks. Husband had Smoked Bourbon (rocks glass) which is;2oz Sixth Street Bourbon, 1 oz Vanilla Liqueur, Mesquite-Smoked Ice Cube, Cinnamon Stick( so they smoke the ice cube) this was a great drink.
I had Old Fashioned (rocks glass)
2 oz Sixth Street Bourbon, 1/2 oz Simple Syrup, Angustura Bitters, Orange Twist, "Filthy" Cherry. It's an Old Fashioned which is always good.
This place is small town charm with a 'Cheers' feel.
I highly recommend that you go here. If traveling on 71 or 10 or 290 make the stop and hang out with some great people and drink some great bourbon.
...You MUST try the Rock and Rye as it's like Fall in a shot glass, but you need to sip it and enjoy it. Your Welcome!! read more
