Backstories. In the world of Spirits, they possess the power to make the tasting experience more enticing. At American Freedom Distillery that power is tenfold. Founded by a group of ex-Special Forces veterans, first to charge into post-9/11 Afghanistan on horseback, the distillery and its products are the result of military determination and the belief in doing the right thing. In this case, that thing is Bourbon.
The Bourbon’s name, Horse Soldier, is a referral to the heroic Green Berets and their daring mission. But in terms of Spirits, it’s much more than that. Co-founder of American Freedom Distillery, Scott Neil, says that the juice inside the bottle has to be just as exceptional as the story behind it. And it is. Released in 2017, the Horse Soldier Barrel Strength Bourbon is the newest addition to the range and offers the most robust expression thus far. Each batch contains a mash bill of yellow dent corn, red winter wheat and malted barley. It’s then fermented and distilled before being aged for 8 years in charred American oak casks. Perfect on its own or in a refreshing Old Fashioned, sipping on this stuff is like singing an ode to bravery, freedom, and damn good Bourbon Whiskey.

Bourbons are very high in vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
Tasting Notes
Appearance / Color
Dark maple, poppy topaz
Nose / Aroma / Smell
Boozy yet sweet aromas up front, with honey, apples, citrus, leather, and a hint of toasted oak.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
A punchy baking spice that heats up to pave the way for some scrumptious butterscotch, caramel, cashews, and even a slight pinch of coffee.
Finish
A longish finish of light honey and sour apple with a subtle burn.

Ratings & Reviews
Dan,
One of my all time favorites. A smooth mouthfeel and easy finish. Rich flavors without the burn.
Rick,
Tried this one on the recommendation of my my bourbon store but really didn’t like it. Couldn’t wait for the bottle to be gone
Moses,
Sweet. Tangy.
John,
Barrel strength is the best offering. That said this is a very fine bourbon being offerd by some GREAT AMERICANS!
Jacob,
This is an excellent, well balanced bourbon. It's very boozy up front, but has a long smooth finish behind it. Notes of toffee and vanilla balance with just the right amount of spice.
