Produced for the 2019 Medley of Remus' Repeal Reserve releases, the 3rd entry in the portfolio combines a collection of 2007, 2008 low rye and 2008 high rye bourbon.
The taste starts off with allspice and clove spices balanced by caramel cola and touches of tobacco leaves and brown sugar. The finish is nice and long with lingering spices and touches of caramel and honey.
The palate offers maple syrup sweetness, orchard fruit, root beer, and spices balanced by leathery oak tannins, before a long finish of chocolate, nougat, and candle wax.

House Review
Nose:
Sweet cream, honey, caramel and nougat. Lovely character that leans sweet until a bit of pepper and cinnamon join on up.
Taste:
Sweet on the palate. Rich and heavy mouth feel. Proof is well placed again. The blend delivers dessert in spades - tobacco, raisin bread, cocoa and caramel. Lightly nutty on the back palate.
Finish:
Long, sweet finish. Nice balance of oak, creme brulee and clove and spice.
Overall:
Well done once again from Remus here. The MGP crew shows off their distilling, aging and blending chops to great applause once more.
