The First Remus Rye — Featuring the 95% Rye Mash Bill
Prohibition was repealed in the United States with the passage of the 21st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The Remus Repeal Reserve Series was crafted to commemorate that milestone — and now, that legacy is honored in an exciting new way with Remus Repeal Reserve Rye Whiskey.
This limited-edition straight rye whiskey is a first for the Remus brand: a blend comprised of 2015 and 2016 reserves of the iconic 95% rye mash bill — 60% from 2015 and 40% from 2016. In short, it's the finest rye whiskey to come from the self-proclaimed World Capital of Rye Whiskey, distilled at Ross & Squibb Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.
