George Remus Repeal Reserve VIII Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a masterfully blended, limited-release bourbon that pays homage to the legendary bootlegger, George Remus. Known as the “King of the Bootleggers,” Remus built a whiskey empire during Prohibition, and this special release reflects his legacy of crafting high-quality spirits. Produced by MGP in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, Repeal Reserve VIII is part of an annual series, with each edition featuring a unique blend of aged bourbon stocks. This 750ml bottle is a collector’s item and a testament to the brand’s dedication to excellence, offering a rich and complex drinking experience.
From the first sip, George Remus Repeal Reserve VIII captivates the palate with a luxurious blend of deep caramel and vanilla, complemented by layers of ripe stone fruit, baking spices, and dark chocolate. The high-rye mash bill adds a bold spice kick, perfectly balanced by the bourbon’s natural sweetness. Mid-palate, notes of candied orange peel, maple syrup, and toasted oak emerge, providing a robust and full-bodied character. The interplay of sweetness, spice, and oak makes each sip dynamic and evolving, with new flavors revealing themselves as the whiskey opens up.
The nose of Repeal Reserve VIII is an intricate mix of warm caramel, dried cherries, and sweet tobacco, setting the stage for an indulgent drinking experience. Undertones of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of leather add complexity, while the influence of well-aged oak provides a subtle smokiness. Hints of butterscotch and brown sugar round out the bouquet, making it an inviting and rich aroma that lingers beautifully in the glass.
One of the most striking aspects of George Remus Repeal Reserve VIII is its exceptionally smooth yet powerful finish. The high-rye content delivers a warm, peppery spice that gradually gives way to lingering notes of vanilla bean, honey, and roasted nuts. The finish is long and satisfying, with a delicate balance of heat and sweetness that leaves a lasting impression. Whether sipped neat or with a drop of water, the whiskey’s complexity continues to evolve on the palate long after the last sip.
Crafted by MGP, one of the most respected distilleries in the U.S., George Remus Repeal Reserve VIII is a blend of carefully selected bourbons aged between six and fourteen years. The blending process ensures a whiskey that is both rich and harmonious, highlighting the depth and character of older, well-matured stocks while maintaining a vibrant and lively profile. The mash bill features a mix of high-rye bourbons, enhancing the whiskey’s signature spice and boldness. Each annual release is distinct, with slight variations in blend composition, making every edition a unique experience.
The rich and layered profile of Repeal Reserve VIII makes it a perfect companion for gourmet food pairings. For a savory experience, pair it with grilled ribeye, smoked brisket, or aged gouda cheese—the whiskey’s spice and caramelized sweetness enhance the umami flavors of the food. If you prefer dessert pairings, dark chocolate, pecan pie, or crème brûlée complement its caramel and vanilla notes beautifully.
For the best drinking experience, serve Repeal Reserve VIII neat in a Glencairn glass to fully appreciate its complexity. Adding a few drops of water can soften the spice and open up additional layers of aroma. For a more refreshing approach, a large ice cube in a rocks glass allows the bourbon to evolve as it chills, gradually revealing new dimensions of flavor.
This bourbon is for serious whiskey enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate depth, craftsmanship, and a storied legacy. If you enjoy high-rye bourbons with bold spice, layered complexity, and a smooth, lingering finish, Repeal Reserve VIII is a must-try. Its limited-release nature also makes it an excellent choice for those who seek rare and unique expressions to add to their collection.
George Remus Repeal Reserve has consistently received high praise from whiskey critics and industry competitions. Previous editions have earned gold medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and high ratings from Bourbon connoisseurs. Each year, the Repeal Reserve series continues to build a reputation for exceptional quality, with the VIII edition standing out as one of the most refined and well-balanced releases yet.
