Remus Bourbon Reveals 2025 Babe Ruth Reserve
Remus Bourbon has announced the next chapter of its official partnership with the Babe Ruth Family – the 2025 Remus Babe Ruth Reserve.
“We’re honored to pay homage to one of baseball’s icons with our latest collector’s release of Remus Babe Ruth Reserve,” says Ian Stirsman, master distiller of Ross & Squibb Distillery. “Our 2025 edition is masterfully crafted and is sure to give baseball fans and high-rye bourbon lovers a unique and memorable way to celebrate America’s pastime and its most legendary player.”
The 2025 edition of Remus Babe Ruth Reserve contains a medley of three high-rye bourbon mash bills – inspired by Ruth’s #3 – which include specially selected barrels distilled in 2016 and 2017, comprising 44% rye, 49% rye and 36% rye bourbons, respectively. At 111 proof (55.5% ABV), the taste profile offers brown sugar, cinnamon and fig on the nose, according to the distillery, with hints of nutmeg and toasted marshmallow on the palate, and a finish of oak, leather and baking spices.
“The estate of Babe Ruth is thrilled to once again collaborate with Ross & Squibb Distillery on the limited edition 2025 Remus Babe Ruth Reserve,” says Tom Stevens, grandson of Babe Ruth. “Babe Ruth is synonymous with excellence, and Remus upholds this standard with each uniquely presented bottle. We are confident that collectors and baseball fans alike will conclude that Remus hit another home run with this special release. Babe would be proud.”
The 2025 edition of Remus Babe Ruth Reserve comes packaged in a rectangular art deco-inspired glass bottle with an embossed baseball-diamond pattern and baseball bat knob wooden-cork closure. The front and back labels incorporate Ruth’s signature, pinstripes and elements of a baseball diamond. A QR code on the back label allows consumers to scan and find out what Ruth did in the game of their bottle’s at bat.
A limited supply of 8,399 bottles, one for each of the Babe’s at-bats, will arrive at retail this month at a minimum suggested price of $149.99 per 750-ml bottle.
