Item Description
Horse Soldier Bourbon has a history connected to 911. It is produced by legendary men and is a legendary spirit.
The owners tell their story best. "Much of our brotherhood was forged in fire during the first days after the 9/11 attacks. Immediately following this affront on our nation, the USA responded with a daring insertion of small teams of Green Berets into northern Afghanistan. The Northern Alliance successfully overthrew Mazar-i-Sharif, a Taliban stronghold, with the support of these brave men. This region’s inhospitable, mountainous terrain made efforts and enemy engagements on wild Afghan horses a necessity for one Special Operations team (ODA595). Nicknamed the “Horse Soldiers”, all these brave men are honored today by America’s Response Monument overlooking “Ground Zero” in New York City. We make history and continue to live legendary lives by instilling family values, adventurous spirits, and pride into Horse Soldier Bourbon Whiskey."
This lot includes a bottle of Horse Soldier Reserve Barrel Strength Bourbon. It is signed on both sides by the distillers. This bottle came from their Florida Distillery. Horse Soldier also has distilleries in Kentucky and Ohio.
Horse Solder Bottles are forged in fire. The New York City Port Authority donated steel recovered from the World Trade Center after 9/11. Each bottle of Horse Soldier is formed in molds of this steel to honor the spirit of resilience and service that arose after the attack on our nation. See the video.
To help you enjoy this bourbon, use the EM Collection of glasses with rocks.
