Remus Unveils Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2

Remus Bourbon, produced by Ross & Squibb Distillery (formerly MGP), has announced the release of Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2, a 113-proof straight wheat whiskey, the first wheat whiskey ever released by the Remus brand.

The second installment continues this annual limited-edition program, intended as an outlet for creative exploration for Master Distiller Ian Stirsman. The result each year is a one-of-a-kind expression meant to showcase unconventional flavor profiles and innovations.

“There is nothing more exciting to a Master Distiller than having the space for exploration” says Stirsman. “With Series No. 2, I set out to create something entirely new for Remus by working with our LKSV, 95% wheat whiskey mashbill for the first time. It’s a continuation of our commitment to innovation while respecting the deep-rooted heritage of our distillery.”

Distilled in 2017, Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2 is finished in a combination of Tawny Port, White Port, Oloroso Sherry, and Ruby Port casks.

The result is aromas of dark chocolate and almond praline, followed by a palate of chocolate, malty sweetness and subtle earthiness, according to the distillery. The finish has notes of chocolate and malt gradually fading into subtle nuttiness.

Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2 will be available in limited quantities nationwide for a suggested retail price of $69.99. Bottled at 113 proof (56.5% ABV), the release will be offered in 700-ml. bottles.

This follows the release of Remus Gatsby Reserve 2025 Edition.
