The Story Behind
Our Caps
Just like our whiskey, every cap is a unique example of fine Western craftsmanship. Originally designed in a home workshop, the cap became a way to add a personal touch to every bottle of TX Whiskey.

Our 5-Step Creation Process.
After a few prototypes, we partnered with our boot-making friends in the community to establish this five-step creation process:

SELECT THE LEATHER.
Leather pieces are repurposed from personal belongings or excess scraps from local boot and saddle makers.

PUNCH IT OUT
Unique tools are used to punch out the perfect sized circle of leather.

MEASURE THICKNESS
Cork sizes for each bottle are determined by the thickness of the repurposed leather.

SECURE THE CORK
A custom-made wood ring is hammered over the leather in order to secure it to the cork.

REINFORCE
Very small pins are added to every bottle to ensure proper sealing.
The Boots That Kicked Everything Off

Capture Your Story
Every cap tells a story and TX invites you to tell yours. Please call in advance to explore the opportunity to bring your boots or special leather into the distillery and pay for it to be made into custom caps. Then, you can use your custom caps on a bottle of TX after you purchase it. We hope you stop by Whiskey Ranch to swap stories with us.
Made with Texas Heart
None of this would be possible without our team, who put the spirit of Texas into everything they do.
