Picture this: a picturesque old-west town, strings of festoon lights draped across a gravel street, music drifting into the night. A glass of Texas whiskey in your hand, the scent of oak and smoke in the air, and the company of friends old and new. This is more than an event. It’s a gathering, a celebration, and a taste of what makes Texas whiskey unlike anywhere else.
Each spring, that spirit comes alive at the Texas Whiskey Festival. Set against the historic charm of Star Hill Ranch just outside Austin, more than 35 distilleries share over 100 whiskeys — bourbons, ryes, single malts, and more. Add in food trucks, live music, and the unmistakable Hill Country energy, and you have a night that lingers long after the last pour. Here, you’ll sip rare releases, meet the makers, and discover why Texas whiskey is as bold and diverse as the state itself.
But whiskey isn’t only celebrated in one place or one night. Texas Whiskey Experiences carries its spirit into private tastings and corporate gatherings, transforming retreats, client dinners, and team celebrations into unforgettable moments. A guided tasting blends storytelling and discovery with a generous pour of Texas pride — turning an ordinary evening into something to be remembered.
And across Texas, Texas Whiskey Experiences partners with communities to add a new layer of flavor to their celebrations. At Smoke & Whiskey Fest, they bring Texas whiskey to a state-
Every bottle tells a story — of the land, the grain, the craft, and the people who make it. Whether you're at a Festival, raising a glass at a private tasting, or discovering Texas whiskey at a community celebration, you’ll experience more than a drink. You’ll experience Texas itself.
So gather your friends, plan your visit, or bring the experience to your own event. However you choose to join, the spirit of Texas awaits in every pour.
