Had a chance a couple of night's ago to go to a Horse Soldier sipping event which included a 60 minute presentation by one of the guys who founded the brand.

Quick back story is these were the Green Berets who first went in to Afghanistan right after 9/11.  They did a bunch of their work riding horses through the mountains.  The Horse Soldier label is made from a mold made of steel from the Twin Towers.

For $75 you got to sample all three bottles, listen to the speech, est what looked like a decent buffet and an autographed bottle.  We skipped the food line. Considering a bottle is about $50, it was a fair value.

Nothing spectacular about the straight bourbon.  The barrel strength was decent too but I enjoyed the small batch the best.

They currently get the bourbon from Ohio but are in the process of building their own distillery in KY. Besides the distillery there's going to he a horse stable for veterans to go to ride horses and decompress.
