The First Responder Whiskey Society has partnered with the Bristol Police Heroes Fund to release this memorial bottle honoring fallen Sgt. Alex Hamzy and Lt. Dustin DeMonte. Our charity will donate 100% of the net proceeds to their families.

Sergeant Alex Hamzy and Lieutenant Dustin DeMonte were shot and killed in an ambush in front of a home on Redstone Hill Road, near Birch Street, at about 11:00 p.m.

Officers had responded to a business earlier in the evening in response to complaints about a disorderly patron. Officers who responded to the call issued the man an infraction and released him. The man then went home, armed himself with an AR-15 rifle, and made a fake 911 call reporting a disturbance at his home. As officers arrived at the scene, the man opened fire on them from the front yard.

Sergeant Hamzy and Lieutenant DeMonte were both fatally wounded, while a third officer suffered non-life-threatening wounds.

The subject was shot and killed by the third officer.  

Sergeant Hamzy and Lieutenant Demonte are survived by their families.

The Liberty Call Family takes great pride in creating the exceptional taste of Double Wood Bourbon. This is a labor of love, with every batch being carefully tasted through each step of the aging process to ensure the highest quality in every bottle.

It all begins with the meticulous selection of only the finest 53-gallon medium charred American Oak barrels, where the bourbon will first age for up to 3 years.

While an outstanding bourbon emerges from this step alone, they decided to go above and beyond in pursuit of unrivaled taste. That’s why they finish every batch in ten-gallon medium charred American Oak barrels for a minimum of 6 months. By exposing the bourbon to 5 times more wood, they achieve a deep amber in the glass. With hints of oak and spice on the nose between soft vanilla notes, there is a pronounced sweetness on the palate while showing touches of caramel and dark chocolate.

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

Please allow 10-12 business days for processing and 3-5 business days for shipping as each bottle is custom made per order.
