Ross & Squibb Unveil Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX

Remus Bourbon has announced the release of Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

This is an annual premium release from the historic Ross & Squibb Distillery in Lawrenceburg, IN, formerly known as MGP.

Aged between 10 and 18 years, the 104 proof (52% ABV) non-chill filtered Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX is the highest proof ever for the series. A limited supply will be available in September at a minimum suggested retail price of $99.99 per 750-ml. bottle.

Remus Repeal Reserve IX includes 7% of an 18-year-aged bourbon containing 21% rye; 26% of an 11-year-aged bourbon comprising 36% rye; 23% of a 10-year-aged bourbon containing 36% rye; and 44% of a second 10-year-aged bourbon comprising 21% rye. 

The result is an aroma of seasoned oak, leather, ripe sweet cherry and subtle tobacco, the distillery reports, before flavors of cherry, roasted coffee and a touch of smoky spice on the palate. The finish brings lingering oak and spice that fades into notes of coffee, cherry and tobacco in the finish.

“Bourbon fans have always expected something new from each edition of Remus Repeal Reserve,” said Master Distiller Ian Stirsman. “That’s why for Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX, we found some of our most unique barrels to date. After finalizing the blend, we blind-tasted it at different proofs to ensure we provide fans with the unique experience they expect. In the end, we believe the 104 proof, combined with 10-18-year-old bourbons, did just that.”
