US-based premium distilled spirits supplier MGP will release Remus Repeal Reserve Series III Straight Bourbon Whiskey in November.

The company noted that its new limited-edition expression will commemorate Prohibition Repeal Day.

MGP Brand vice-president Andrew Mansinne said: “We’re privileged to have some of the country’s most extensive, aged Bourbons and are continuing to build our limited release programme every year.

“Remus Repeal Reserve is now in its third year and delivers a bold, high-rye profile that weaves the best of our 2007/2008 Bourbons into a beautifully smooth style. It is made from even older, 14-year aged reserves to further commemorate the Prohibition era and our unique brand story.

“Remus Volstead Reserve will never be repeated and is a rare Bourbon that coincides with the release of Series III to make this holiday season even more memorable for collectors.”

Crafted at MGP’s 170-year-old distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, the latest expression contains two mash bills from 2007 / 2008.

The whiskey contains 12%, 2007 Bourbon (21% Rye); 78%, 2008 Bourbon (21% Rye) and 10%, 2008 Bourbon (36% Rye).

The company claims that its new drink offers a complex aroma of maple with caramel, candied fruit, chocolate, baking spice, smoke and leather, as well as a palate of caramelised brown spice and a hint of rye on the finish.

From 13 November, Remus Repeal Reserve Series III can be purchased for a suggested retail price of $84.99 per 750ml bottle.

Last month, MGP announced the release of Remus Volstead Reserve straight bourbon whiskey in November.

Crafted at MGP’s distillery in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, the bourbon will be bottled at 100-proof. The release coincides with the 100th anniversary of the start of the US national prohibition under the Volstead Act.
