"Hailing from the Ross & Squibb Distillery in Lawrenceburg, IN (also home to drinks giant MGP), this is the ninth edition of the celebrated annual release (last year's won a Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition). The release celebrates the end of Prohibition, which makes sense, as the whiskey brand is named after legendary bootlegger George Remus. Using barrels between 10 and 18 years of age, this one is full of oak, tobacco, cherry and coffee."
"The oldest and rarest whiskey ever released by the Vermont distillery, WhistlePig also claims this new limited-edition expression is aged longer than any other American Single Malt ever released. Finished in Tuscan-born Vin Santo wine barrels - that's basically an Italian dessert wine - this one is floral and fruity on the nose, leading to a creamy, fruity, malty liquid that also has an interesting cedar characteristic."
"Located in Brooklyn's increasingly hip Navy Yard, this marks the first permanent rye release from Kings County, New York City's oldest and largest whiskey distillery. It bears an "Empire Rye" insignia on the bottle, a mark of provenance and identity launched by New York Distillers in 2017 (Empire Rye must be made from at least 75% New York-grown rye, distilled in New York and meet the standards for straight rye whiskey)."
Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX is a 52% ABV bourbon from Ross & Squibb Distillery aged between 10 and 18 years, presenting oak, tobacco, cherry and coffee with a spicy, oak-driven high-rye profile. WhistlePig 30 Single Malt is a 45.2% ABV, 30-year–aged American single malt finished in Vin Santo barrels, offering floral, fruity, creamy and malty notes alongside cedar character. Kings County Distillery Straight Empire Rye is a 45% ABV, three-year rye made from 80% Danko rye and 20% English malted barley, designated Empire Rye and produced in Brooklyn.
