Green Feet Whisky

Green Feet Whisky: Green Feet Mean Rescue

The green footprints on this label are one of the most storied symbols in the United States Air Force. In fact, the tradition traces back to the Vietnam War. Huge Sikorsky rescue helicopters, nicknamed the Jolly Green Giants, dropped into tall grass and rice paddies. There, they pulled downed airmen out of harm’s way. They left giant circular imprints behind, as if a giant had stepped there. Ever since, green feet have marked Air Force Pararescue and the combat rescue community, whose creed holds that others may live. In that world, green feet mean rescue. They mean hope when all else seems lost.

Green Feet Whisky honors that community. It honors the pararescuemen, crews, and support professionals who go out when everyone else is coming back. Also, this whisky suits reunions and remembrances. It’s for toasting saves and honoring the ones who gave everything so someone else could come home.

Handcrafted on the Florida Panhandle

Timber Creek Distillery in Crestview, Florida, distills and bottles Green Feet Whisky. This grain-to-glass farm distillery sits in the heart of Northwest Florida’s special operations country. That region has deep ties to the Air Force rescue and special warfare communities. As a result, Timber Creek crafts each of its private label spirits on site. That process runs from grain and water through fermentation, distillation, aging, and bottling. It has become a trusted maker of tribute bottles for military units and associations across the Gulf Coast. This whisky carries that same standard: honest, small-batch, and made close to the people it honors. Pour it slowly, tell the stories, and remember what the footprints stand for. That others may live.

In short, Green Feet Whisky is best enjoyed in person. Come find it at one of our tours and tastings sessions in Crestview. And if you want spirits made under your own label, explore our private label program. You can also plan a private event here on the farm, or reserve our hands-on bourbon blending experience.
