  • I’m not going to say that this was the best RRR release yet, but I will say that it is probably my second favorite.

  • Breaking Bourbon
  • By Eric Hasman
  • Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX is a complex and unique Ross & Squibb Distillery-produced bourbon that offers distinct, well-defined flavors that don't fully come together.

  • Whiskey Consensus
  • By Matthew Evans
  • Remus Repeal Reserve Series IX delivers a classic bourbon experience that balances value and quality, making it a standout in its price range. Its inviting nose of cherry, seasoned oak, leather, fudge, and baking spices leads to a palate that’s spicy yet approachable, with cherry, cinnamon, dark chocolate, almonds, and black tea coating the tongue.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Big chopped peanuts note on the nose, plus buttered popcorn, cinnamon, pepper and leather

  • Taste:

    Very nice viscosity. Buttered popcorn note continues, joined by tea, tobacco, leather, cinnamon, brown sugar and lemon peel.

  • Finish:

    Cracked pepper and cinnamon lead the finish, joined by, once again, a big buttery note, as well as a big peanut oil note and vanilla bean, plus tobacco.

  • Overall:

    A very distinctive bourbon that leans dry and spicy, striking some unusual notes while being delicious, well balanced and presenting a lush mouthfeel. A really nice expression.
