About this bottle
Bottled at cask strength rather than cut down with water, Horse Soldier Forged in Fire Reserve is the uncut, unfiltered line from Horse Soldier Bourbon — the brand founded by twelve Green Berets who rode on horseback into Afghanistan after September 11, honored in the "America's Response Monument" whose bottle stoppers are cast partly from salvaged World Trade Center steel. Because each release is a single barrel, proof shifts from bottle to bottle; this one comes in at 122. Expect bold oak, dark caramel, and real heat rather than a tamed, standard-proof pour. It suits bourbon drinkers chasing genuine cask-strength barrel picks with a serious veteran-owned story behind them.
How to drink Horse Soldier Forged in Fire (122)
Let it sit with a splash of water for a minute before tasting — cask strength bourbon like this opens up more with a little dilution than with ice alone.

Questions about this bottle
What's the best way to serve Horse Soldier Forged in Fire (Proof 122)?
Add a few drops of water and sip it neat — at barrel strength it's worth easing the proof down to taste.
What does "uncut" mean on this bottle?
It's bottled straight from the barrel at cask strength without dilution, so the proof — 122 here — varies barrel to barrel rather than being cut to a standard number.
What's the story behind Horse Soldier Bourbon?
Horse Soldier was founded by U.S. Special Forces soldiers who rode on horseback into Afghanistan after 9/11 — the mission the film "12 Strong" is based on — and a piece of World Trade Center steel is worked into the neck of each bottle's cap.
