Rebel Bourbon's signature Wheated Bourbon, finished in French Wine casks. What a balance!
The story goes that Billy Idol was doing shots with the Rolling Stones at a party. Keith Richards just loved him some hard liquor and he was fond of Rebel Yell — the brand that Rebel Bourbon was sold under at the time. Billy liked the name Rebel Yell and asked the gents if he could borrow it for a song. You know, the one where Billy is asking for more, more, more. If you are a music fan like we are, that’s reason enough to buy it right there.
The original Rebel Bourbon Whiskey was made by the W. L. Weller & Sons Company. And though that distillery popped into existence in 1849, it wasn’t until the mid-1900s that they started bottling American Whiskeys under the Rebel Yell brand. Anyway, the name was passed around from company to company for a bit, garnering awards left and right, their Wheated Bourbon proving a hit. Since the early 1980s, the label has been lovingly tended to by American Whiskey-lover David Sherman’s beverage company, Luxco, and today, it's known as Rebel Bourbon. Despite the name change, the rebellious spirit is the same.
68% corn, 20% wheat, and 12% malted barley go into this delicious Wheated Bourbon. The magic happens when it goes for a 6-month finishing nap in toasted French oak barrels. The kicker? These used to hold Wine! You guessed it, it's dark and fruity notes galore, but they never overstep the line. It's a balanced 90-proof Whiskey, and a limited one ― only 6,000 bottles of this award-winning juice were produced.
