Remus Repeal Reserve® Series VIII is a remarkable addition to the award-winning Remus Repeal Reserve collection, crafted to celebrate the repeal of Prohibition on December 5, 1933. This edition is the oldest release to date, blending a unique mix of bourbons aged between 10 and 17 years. Master Distiller Ian Stirsman has made notable adjustments, including returning to non-chill filtration to enhance mouthfeel and increasing the proportion of the high-rye recipe bourbon in the blend. The result is a complex, rich bourbon that pays homage to history while delivering a bold, refined drinking experience.

Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a blended straight bourbon from Ross & Squibb Distillery in Indiana, built from bourbons aged between 10 and 17 years, which makes Series VIII the oldest Remus Repeal Reserve release to date. Master Distiller Ian Stirsman returned to non-chill filtration for this edition and leaned harder on the high-rye recipe bourbon in the blend, and you can taste both choices. The mouthfeel is full and round, and a thread of spice keeps the sweetness in check. Expect ripe cherry, candied pecan and a hint of leather on the nose, then maple syrup, cherry and dried fig on the palate, finishing long with vanilla, oak and baking spice. It suits the bourbon drinker who already knows what they like and wants to see how age and blending shape a whiskey, and it is a natural pick for anyone following the series. We carry it because it rewards slow, neat sipping and makes a thoughtful bottle to open on December 5, the anniversary of Repeal it was created to celebrate.
Pairs well with
- Pecan pie — The pie's toasted nuts and caramelized sweetness echo the bourbon's candied pecan and maple syrup notes.
- Dark chocolate and dried figs — Bittersweet chocolate and chewy figs pick up the cherry and dried fig on the palate while the baking spice finish cuts through the richness.
- Repeal Day toast — A bottle made to honor the end of Prohibition on December 5, 1933 is the natural pour to raise on its anniversary.
