Remus Repeal Reserve Series IV (2020 Medley)

Very slow open 👎 - Carmel I Vanilla | Leather | Rye Spice

Not opening up as well as I hoped it would. Still a good pour. Caramel is up front for sure

This batch IV of the Remus Repeal Reserve comes about as close to a perfect 5 start bourbon as any bottle I've ever had. I'm a huge fan of a high rye mash bill, and this combines MGP's 21% and 36% rye mash bills together at a 3:1 ratio, all aged at least 12 years - and I love that they tell you all of this right on the front of the label! It is a quintessential bourbon profile with a great balance of sweetness and spice which coats the palate, and finishes with a lingering oak dryness and rye spice. I have been a big fan of RRR since the first batch (which is now underwhelming in comparison to the others), and this latest batch is the best one yet!

One of my absolute favorites for under $100.
