Horse Soldier Liberty Edition Bourbon: A 13-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon, Limited to 1,776 Bottles, Pays Homage to America’s 250 Years of Independence and the Pursuit of the American Dream

SOMERSET, Ky., March 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Horse Soldier Bourbon, from American Freedom Distillery, announces the release of Liberty Edition, a 13-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon created to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States and symbolizes enlightenment, resilience and inspiration. Liberty Edition’s arrival marks a defining evolution in the Horse Soldier brand story. With an SRP of $799.00 per 750ml bottle, the limited-edition offering is now nationally available.

With the sale of each bottle of Liberty Edition, Horse Soldier Bourbon will make a donation to the Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island Foundation, supporting the preservation of America’s historic landmarks for generations to come.

Technical Specifications and Rarity

Limited to just 1,776 bottles, Horse Soldier Liberty Edition represents the rare coming together of extended aging, disciplined whiskey-making, and symbolic design. Bottled at 100 proof after 13 years in new American oak, the release marks one of the rarest and most mature expressions in the brand’s portfolio to date.

“The same quiet professionalism that defined our past now defines how we now distill,” said Scott Neil, President. “This release signals that our next chapter is defined by performance. It honors where we’ve come from while marking a new azimuth in our journey. Liberty Edition is about craftsmanship and focus. We approach every release with intention, but this one carries extra meaning in its age, design, and purpose.”

(Editor’s Note: according to online retailers*, the bourbon features a high-rye mashbill of 74% Corn, 18% Rye, and 8% Malted Barley and was aged in Char #4 American oak. [*Nestor Liquor and Empire Wine])

Bespoke Commemorative Design

“Each Liberty Edition bottle is formed from bespoke French glass in recognition of the Statue of Liberty’s origin. An antiqued copper label references its historic metalwork, while a radiant gold flame closure crowns the bottle. The presentation elevates Horse Soldier Liberty Edition beyond a commemorative release into a collector’s piece intended for both display and enjoyment,” said Elizabeth Pritchard-Koko, Co-Founder and Chief Brand Officer.

Horse Soldier Farms and Regional Impact

Liberty Edition arrives at a pivotal moment for Horse Soldier Bourbon as the company continues developing Horse Soldier Farms, its long-term Kentucky home in Somerset. This soon to be opened state-of-the-art production facility and visitor destination is designed and built to support long-aged whiskey programs and a best-in-class hospitality experience.

The founders saw unique potential in Somerset’s close-knit community and close proximity to Lake Cumberland. The new facility will extend beyond traditional distilling operations, incorporating a restaurant, outdoor event spaces, and nearby access to water, creating a tourism destination that will generate sustained economic impact for the region. The scheduled grand opening of Horse Soldier Farms is July 4th, 2026, alongside America’s 250th anniversary.

Liberty Edition is now available for sale via a curated selection of on and off-premises retail partners in key Horse Soldier markets. To find a bottle near you or to purchase online where available, visit horsesoldierbourbon.com.
