Latest edition features a medley of five rare
bourbons aged since 2007-2014
ST. LOUIS ,
Aug. 24,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ross & Squibb Distillery
Master Distiller Ian Stirsman announced the upcoming release of
Remus Repeal Reserve Series VII Straight Bourbon Whiskey this
September. The limited-edition bourbon is the seventh-annual
offering of the distillery's award-winning Remus Repeal Reserve
Bourbon collection. Bottled at 100 proof/50% ABV, Remus Repeal
Reserve Series VII retails for a suggested $99.99 per 750-ml bottle and will be available in
limited quantities starting in September in honor of National
Bourbon Heritage Month.
Created by Stirsman and the distillery's team of master
distillers and master blenders, Series VII is comprised of barrels
aged between 9-16 years from its 175-year-old Lawrenceburg, Indiana, distillery. Made in
Ross & Squibb's signature high-rye style, Remus Repeal Reserve
features a new medley of bourbons each year, allowing Stirsman and
his team to experiment with their various mash bills and aged
reserves. Remus Repeal Reserve Series VII is comprised of 6% 2007
Bourbon (21% Rye), 26% 2013 Bourbon (21% Rye), 26% 2013 Bourbon
(36% Rye), 21% 2014 Bourbon (21% Rye) and 21% 2014 Bourbon (36%
Rye). Series VII leads with aromas of caramelized pecans, candied
cherry and maple syrup. The taste begins with rich caramel, maple
and candied raisin, leading to a candied cherry, barrel char and
rich cinnamon body. The finish delivers intense cinnamon and
peppermint spice, with lingering notes of vanilla, caramel and
oak.
"We believe we have some of the best whiskey in the world aging
here at the Ross & Squibb Distillery. The Remus Repeal Reserve
series allows our team the opportunity to showcase these great
spirits, as well as showcase our expertise at blending our best
barrels to create a special medley each year," said Stirsman. "As
the latest in this award-winning collection, Series VII is certain
to be a highly sought-after and much-enjoyed member of the Remus
Repeal Reserve family."
Previous releases of Remus Repeal Reserve have achieved some of
the highest recognition in the bourbon category, including winning
Best Of Class at the 2021 Sunset International Spirits
Competition, being named among the Top 5 American Whiskeys of 2021
by Fred Minnick, and earning 98
points from Tasting Panel Magazine (for both Remus
Repeal Reserve Series IV and V). Remus Repeal Reserve Series VI
earned a Master medal in The Spirits Business' 2022 American
Whiskey Masters competition, received the Double Platinum
medal in the 2023 ASCOT Awards and was named among the top 10
whiskeys for 2022 by both Drinkhacker and The Whiskey Wash.
