The Master Distiller at Lux Row, John Rempe, has personally chosen the finest barrels for this release. The bourbon originates from Rebel’s traditional wheated mash bill, aged for four years. Notably, this batch has been bottled at a robust 110 proof, aimed at delivering an intensified flavor profile compared to its counterparts.

Rebel Small Batch Reserve is distinguished by its rich aromatic profile, including hints of honey, vanilla, and caramel.

The experience culminates in a warm finish accented by a touch of light spice.

This bourbon is more than just a drink; it’s a celebration of heritage and craftsmanship. It represents a blend of the old and the new, taking the time-honored wheated recipe from 1849 and presenting it in a small-batch, higher-proof format. The result is a bold yet smooth bourbon that’s expected to resonate well with enthusiasts.

Set for limited distribution, Rebel Small Batch Reserve will be available at selected retailers across the country later this month. Priced at $34.99 for a 750ml bottle, it offers a premium bourbon experience that’s accessible to a wide range of consumers.

Lux Row Distillers continues to honor the tradition and innovation of bourbon-making with this latest release, promising a unique and enjoyable experience for bourbon lovers. Whether you’re a long-time fan of Rebel or new to the brand, the Rebel Small Batch Reserve is set to offer a distinct and memorable bourbon experience.
