The sticker theme for the duo of Garrison Bros barrels is admittedly a bit of a reach. One of our favorite shows of all time is "Peaky Blinders" (available on Netflix). The main protagonist in the show is Tommy Shelby, the Irish mob boss. In the show, his family owns a pub called the "Garrison." He also has a brother (his right hand) in the show named Arthur Shelby. Whiskey plays a prominent role in the show, so with so many parallels, we wanted to pay homage to the show we loved watching over the years. 

As usual, parts of the proceeds will go to support a charity. This time, we will donate to GOOD BOURBON FOR A GOOD CAUSE organization. In association with the distilled spirits community, the organization is the beneficiary of marketing and promotional events for philanthropic purposes.
