Horse Soldier Straight Bourbon is the entry expression from American Freedom Distillery founded by US Army Special Forces veterans a well-balanced, medium-bodied bourbon with a warm, spicy character of caramel, toasted corn, oak, and dark fruit.

American Freedom Distillery was founded by the Special Forces soldiers who rode horseback into Afghanistan in the weeks after 9/11, and the signature horseshoe-nail bottle references the horses they rode into combat. The Straight Bourbon is the everyday expression in the lineup: a caramel, toasted corn, oak, cinnamon, and dark fruit nose leading into a palate of oak, vanilla, nutmeg, mild black pepper spice, and a light touch of honey, with good balance and a warm, spicy feel.
