What started as a friendly introduction to a couple of bourbon-loving, outdoorsmen with true patriotic spirit, has come full circle from a pretty cool idea to an awesome awareness/fundraising campaign in support of our greatest warriors.
When we first met Matt & Gus of Whiskey & Whitetails, we enjoyed similar enthusiasm for the outdoors, bourbon and the great American spirit. As we talked, we learned of Matt’s military service and his passion for supporting his fellow Veterans. It was then the idea for a special release was born, a barrel picked by Veterans with a portion of the proceeds supporting a local veterans charity.
With a name that reflects the grit and brotherhood forged in service, we are proud to present our Veteran’s Day Special Edition William Alan Battlefield Bourbon. Strong and bold, this whiskey honors the courage, resilience, and strength of all our military veterans.
With this whiskey, we recognize that for many of our veterans and their families, the battle does not end once their service does. We are proud to share our support of our country's servicemen and women by donating 20% of the proceeds from each bottle to The Big Red Barn Retreat. The Big Red Barn Retreat is a haven for veterans and first responders, offering integrated programs for post-traumatic growth and well being.
This special edition will be released in limited quantities, and sold on a first come first served basis on Saturday, November 9th from our Leesville distillery.
Help us honor those who served, share our event on your social profile and plan to stop by for a tasting and a bottle or two.
