US Border Patrol Agent Karla Castellanos was seriously injured on October 21, 2023 while on-duty when a car crashed into the Law Enforcement checkpoint at Welton in US Border Patrol Yuma Sector.

Unfortunately, due to the severity of her many injuries and her right hand being amputated, she was air lifted to a trauma center in Phoenix where she stayed in intensive care for 3 months.

Karla is still fighting many of the injuries she sustained on that terrible day. She was recently transported to a physical rehab hospital. She is working hard day in and day out with a strong desire to return to Full Duty again.

Karla’s family and her friend, Walter, a fellow LEO, has been by her side throughout this ordeal. Walter says, “Karla is the strongest girl I know. If anyone can overcome this, it’s her!”

This commemorative bottle of whiskey has been created by Liberty Call Distilling in San Diego California. The company is marine owned and a friend to all first responders. The bottle boasts superior quality work compared to other engravings because it is sandblasted, not just etched.

The whiskey is first aged in new 53 gallon medium charred American oak barrels for 2 years then rested in-barrel with Chilean Amburana Oak staves.  They’ve created a uniquely sweet, yet spicy bourbon whiskey. With hints of gingerbread and fresh vanilla on the nose, there is a pronounced sweetness on the palate while showing touches of oak, spice cake, nutmeg, and light brown sugar. 

The bottles can be shipped across the United States except for the restricted states of Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, Utah, and Virginia.
