Aged for a significant decade, the Rebel 10-Year embodies rich and complex flavors that have been meticulously developed over time. Each bottle is filled from a single barrel, ensuring that the character and personality of the bourbon is preserved in every sip. At an impressive

68% corn, 20% wheat, and 12% malt. The result is a bourbon that presents a beautiful golden amber color, captivating the eye even before the first taste.
Flavor Profile
The experience begins with inviting aromas of vanilla and dark fruits, which are complemented by subtle hints of citrus and oak. As you take a sip, flavors of caramel and citrus unfold on the palate, culminating in a luxuriously smooth finish with just a dash of spice.
