American Freedom Distillery was founded by four ex-Green Berets. Currently, they're building the distillery in St. Petersburg, Florida. For now, Horse Soldier Bourbon is distilled in Columbus, Ohio. Days after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the USA deployed a small team of Green Berets mounted on horseback. These brave men are honored today by the America’s Response Monument at Ground Zero. This bourbon honors the small unit, nicknamed the Horse Soldiers. Their story was depicted in the 2018 movie 12 Strong, as well as the CNN documentary Legion of Brothers and the American Response Monument located at Ground Zero in New York City. Made in the heart of America with pride and patience, this Horse Soldier Straight Bourbon is distilled from a mash of 65% corn, 30% rye, 5% barley, using water from limestone aquifers carefully filtered for purity. The spirit is matured for at least 2 years in new, charred American oak casks. Enjoy it in a range of cocktails, sipped neat or over ice. This bourbon is non-chill filtered, well-balanced, and robust with a mellow finish. Pick up your bottle today

Caramel, toasted corn, oak, cinnamon and dark fruit nose. The taste is fantastic with hints of oak, vanilla, nutmeg, some mild black pepper spice, and a light bit of honey. Good balance, medium body and a warm spicy feel.
