Gold Medal- The 50 Best Bourbon 2023

The U.S. Coast Guard is our nations oldest continuous operating maritime service. Both a law enforcement agency and a military service, these Guardians support, protect, and defend our countrys coasts and waterways, and rescue those in need.Our Guardian Bourbon represents the United States Coast Guard in its bright life vest orange label.

Aged for three years, the Guardian Bourbon will definitely wet your whistle after a treacherous day in the office. Unlike a majority of bourbons, our mash build is 99% corn and proofed with fresh Colorado Rocky Mountain water providing a smooth, almost sweet, well-tempered whiskey. Neat, over a rock, or with your favorite mixer, this bourbon, just like the Coasties motto, Semper Paratus is Always Ready.
