Recently, Ross & Squibb, the distillery behind the wildly popular Remus Bourbon, announced the launch of a new addition to the brand’s portfolio. It’s called Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2, and it’s the award-winning brand’s first foray into the world of wheat whiskey.
Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2
This special release is the second expression from the brand’s highly regarded Experimental Series. The first whiskey won numerous awards, including a gold medal at the 2025 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. The second installment is a wheat whiskey finished in a combination of Tawny Port, White Port, Oloroso Sherry, and Ruby Port casks.
According to the Remus Bourbon, the result is a complex, memorable 113-proof whiskey that begins with aromas of dark chocolate and candied almonds. The palate is centered on chocolate, malty sweetness, and gentle earthy flavor. The finish is long, lingering, and warm, ending with notes of chocolate, malt, and candied nuts.
“There is nothing more exciting to a Master Distiller than having the space for exploration,” Ian Stirsman, the Master Distiller at Ross & Squibb Distillery, says.
“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.”
Where can I buy it?
Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2 is currently available in limited quantities at select whiskey retailers throughout the US for the suggested retail price of $69.99 for a 700ml bottle.
