Semper Fidelis, or always faithful, is the U.S. Marine Corps motto. A Katy bourbon company is working to follow that motto it donates a portion of its profits to organizations supporting military members and their families.

Big Stick Spirits is headquartered in Katy, but its bourbon, like that of many other bourbon companies, is made in Kentucky.

The mash used to make the bourbon is a proprietary, 95 proof blend. Among other honors, it won a gold medal at the Denver International Spirits Competition and a silver medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, both held this year.
