Veterans Day isn’t just calendar filler; it’s prime time to pour one out for the real MVPs – our vets. They’ve done their bit for our country, so let’s do ours with a little something that’s aged as well as their stories: Ammunition Bourbon and Rye, perfect for raising as a toast this November.

Distilled in Kentucky and finished in Sonoma County, California, these bottles are more than just good looks and smooth talkers. They’re the brainchild of winemaker Andy Wahl, who started finishing his bourbon with a vintner’s sense of adventure for a new twang. Their bourbon? A triple-threat blend that’s done time in cabernet sauvignon wine barrels, coming out with swagger – caramel notes that melt into a butterscotch sunset. And the rye? It’s the bold wingman, aged in Ammunition’s pinot noir barrels, ready to rise to any occasion with a spice that’s as sharp as a salute.

The label also just launched a Cask Strength Bourbon, a 110-proof powerhouse aged for four years and finished in Cabernet Sauvignon French Oak barrels, delivering a limited-time experience of unparalleled color and richness.

Now, let’s touch on the heart behind the hooch. This Veteran’s Day, Ammunition is not just mixing grains and grapes; they’re stirring up support for the folks who’ve had our backs. Ammunition Wines & Whiskey has partnered with Operation Homefront with the goal of raising $350,000 during the organization’s #11DaysofImpact campaign. Operation Homefront is all about having our heroes’ six, especially when times get tough. Learn more on their webs

Ammunition’s message? Every bottle bought during the month of November is a thank you note you don’t have to write, with A toast to the brave, a handshake in a glass, a pat on the back with every clink. So let’s not just drink to unwind; let’s drink to those who served and to support.

This Veterans Day, let’s unite for a pour with purpose. Grab a bottle, share the mission, and let’s make an IMPACT that’s felt beyond the buzz.

Here’s raising one to our vets – because they deserve thanks that’s aged to perfection.
