Rebel Bourbon has a long and storied history. This award-winning whiskey brand was first distilled back in 1849 and still uses the original recipe to this day. Well-known for its soft, mellow wheated mash bill, the brand recently announced the return of one of its most beloved expressions. The highly heralded Rebel 10-Year Single Barrel Bourbon.
Rebel 10-Year Single Barrel Bourbon
Matured for a minimum of ten years, Rebel 10-Year Single Barrel Bourbon is bottled one barrel at a time (hence the name). The result is a memorable, noteworthy, 100-proof whiskey that fans eagerly await each year.
It begins with a mash bill of 68% corn, 20% wheat, and 12% malted barley. After aging for a decade, the result is a soft, timeless expression that begins with a nose of dried fruits, toasted vanilla beans, candied orange peels, and charred oak. Sipping it reveals an intense and complex palate loaded with flavors like caramelized sugar, orange peels, oak, butterscotch, and just a wisp of baking spices at the finish.
“This year’s 10-Year Single Barrel is a testament to the legacy of Rebel Bourbon,” Rebel Bourbon Master Distiller John Rempe says.
“From the unique mash bill through the 10-year aging and single-barrel bottling process for robust flavor, Rebel 10-Year is made for sipping, and ready to be enjoyed by anyone ready to let their spirit be heard.”
