This 90-proof Indiana straight bourbon whiskey represents eleven years of patient aging, where Master Distiller Ian Stirsman's careful blending creates a whiskey that honors the legendary George Remus while pushing the boundaries of traditional bourbon craft.\n\nFrom the historic Ross \u0026amp; Squibb Distillery comes this exceptional bourbon that carries forward a heritage dating to 1847. Named for George Remus, the notorious \"King of the Bootleggers\" of the 1920s, this whiskey embodies the spirit of innovation wrapped in time-honored tradition. Selected exclusively by Eureka! Whiskey Club for their Distiller's Vault collection, each bottle represents the careful marriage of Indiana grain, limestone-filtered water, and eleven years of barrel aging.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charred oak, vanilla bean, dried orange peel, toasted almonds, honey-soaked cornbread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramel corn, dark chocolate, cinnamon bark, sun-warmed leather, maple syrup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-long with lingering spice, tobacco leaf, and sweet oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpirit Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStraight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45.0% (90 Proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e700ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAge Statement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 Years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistillery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoss \u0026amp; Squibb Distillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndiana\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeritage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSince 1847\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLibrary sipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Complex enough for contemplative evenings with a good book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBourbon education:\u003c\/strong\u003e Showcasing Indiana's distinctive distilling character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial occasions:\u003c\/strong\u003e When you want to share something with genuine provenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeat enjoyment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Best appreciated without ice to experience the full eleven-year journey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does Remus Distiller's Vault 11 Year taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemus Distiller's Vault delivers a sophisticated bourbon experience with rich caramel and vanilla notes balanced by charred oak and warming spice.
