 Forces Whiskeyannually since 2015, and a portion of the sales proceeds of this brand are donated by us to special forces charities annually. These donations currently support the 1 stSpecial Forces Group at JBLM, and we have raised more than $150,000 for charities at JBLM to support military personnel and their families. We are expanding this concept to the multiple Special Forces groups across the country with a greater emphasis on distribution in more states and direct to consumer shipping through our e -commerceplatform. Our new Salute Seriesline of whiskeys consists of various bottlings branded for U.S. military branches and first responders. Since the launch of the Army SOFversion in late October 2023 through June 30, 2025, we have sold more than 25,000 bottles of our Salute Seriesbrand directly to consumers in our tasting rooms and online, and to select wholesalers, representing more than $1,800,000 in revenue to us and $2,400,000 and brand value based on retail pricing to the 121 customer. In August 2024, we launched under our Salute Seriescalled War Dogsand have sold more than 2,500 bottles online through just our DtC e -commercechannel, with charitable components from each sale going to military K -9nonprofit groups. In January 2025, we launched a bottling honoring the 80 th Anniversary of the Battle of Iwo Jimaand sold out our initial 2,200 bottles in less than three weeks. The D -Day , Iwo Jimaand War Dogsproducts retail for $95 each, plus taxes and shipping (if shipped DtC), and their rapid adoption among consumers show that we can continue to release affinity driven labels to attract consumer attention and purchases and help us drive more revenue with higher margins.
