Free Personalization — Crafted by hand in Monroe, CT

A retirement tribute for the Coastie who stood the watch, engraved with his name and your words.

  • The Coast Guard eagle and anchor emblem, with RETIRED above and U.S. COAST GUARD below
  • Two front lines for his rank, name, years of service or last station
  • An optional back message of up to 120 characters
  • Holds 26 oz, so a full 750 ml bottle pours right in

Few days in a career carry the weight of the one when a Coast Guardsman hangs up the uniform. The front of this decanter carries the eagle and anchor with his rank and name beneath it. The back is yours: a line from the family, the crew or the shipmates who stood the watch with him.

It earns a permanent spot on the bar, the office shelf or the mantel, and every pour brings back the years behind it.

How to Personalize

  1. Line 1: his rank or title, up to 30 characters (example: CHIEF PETTY OFFICER). Optional, leave it blank for a name-only front.
  2. Line 2: his name, or his years of service, up to 30 characters (example: RICHARD WINKLER, or 2005-2025).
  3. Custom Message: an optional back message, up to 120 characters. Leave it blank for a front-only decanter.
  4. Check your spelling before you add to cart. We engrave exactly what you type.

Yes. It holds 26 oz, so a standard 750 ml bottle of whiskey or bourbon pours in with room to spare.
