Heritage Distilling Co Special Operations Salute™ Whiskey - De Oppresso Liber Edition

This limited-edition, keepsake bottle of Special Operations Salute honors the unique relationship between President John F. Kennedy and the “Green Berets” whose motto, De Oppresso Liber – to free the oppressed – honorably reflects the ethos of the Special Forces Regiment, past, present, and future. 

This 5-year Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is bottled at 61% ABV / 122 proof – Barrel Strength - in honor of the year (1961) President Kennedy visited Fort Bragg and subsequently approved the green beret for wear by Special Forces soldiers.

The accompanying, fine art print of our 35^th US President speaking with General William P. Yarborough, the Commander/Commandant of the US Army Special Warfare Center (now JFKSWCS) at Fort Bragg in 1961, is our gift to you. This custom, frameable artwork, titled “JFK 1961” is by renowned artist, veteran, and US Army Special Forces Regiment alumnus, Michael Solovey.
