The Story
A spectacularly crafted bourbon from the legendary Ross & Squibb Distillery in Indiana, paying homage to the "King of the Bootleggers," George Remus. This 6-year-old release pushes the legal definition of bourbon to its absolute limit, featuring a mash bill composed of a staggering 39% rye grain! Bottled at a robust 109 proof, it delivers a massive, intensely spicy, and deeply complex flavor profile that completely bridges the gap between a high-rye bourbon and a sweet straight rye.
NOSE
Deep and aromatic with heavy notes of sweet candied fruit, dark caramel, intense baking spice, and a hint of leather.
PALATE
Full-bodied, rich, and mouth-coating. A massive wave of cinnamon and peppery spice is beautifully rounded out by deep vanilla, dark chocolate, and toasted oak.
FINISH
Exceptionally long, warm, and spicy, leaving a lasting trail of dry oak and sweet brown sugar.
