Rebel Yell 100 Oloroso Sherry Casks
Rebel Yell 100 Oloroso Sherry Casks is a bold American wheated bourbon whiskey that combines a traditional bourbon base with a unique finishing in Oloroso sherry casks. This combination gives the whiskey a rich and complex character with elegant fruity and spicy notes. The Rebel brand belongs to well-known American bourbon producers that follow the wheated bourbon tradition – meaning wheat is used instead of rye in the mash bill. As a result, the whiskey has a smoother, softer and slightly sweeter profile.
Rebel Yell 100 Oloroso Sherry Casks first matures in traditional American oak barrels, which give the bourbon classic notes of vanilla, caramel and oak. It is then finished in Oloroso sherry casks, which add deeper fruity and spicy nuances. Thanks to this process, the bourbon develops a richer flavour profile with notes of dried fruit, caramel and gentle spice.
On the nose, aromas of caramel, vanilla, dried fruit and light oak appear. The palate is rich and bold, offering flavours of raisins, dark caramel, sweet spice and oak. Thanks to the use of wheat in the mash bill, the whiskey remains pleasantly smooth and balanced. Lovers of American whiskey will appreciate it similarly to other products in the bourbon whiskey category.
The whiskey is bottled at 100 proof (50 % alcohol), giving it a stronger character and fuller flavour dynamics. Rebel Yell 100 Oloroso Sherry Casks is an ideal bourbon for slow sipping, best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water.
