Experimental Series No. 1 Kicks Off a Bold New Annual Limited-Edition Release
Lawrenceburg, IN (March 5, 2025) – Remus Bourbon, the award-winning whiskey from Ross & Squibb Distillery, has launched its highly anticipated Master Distiller Experimental Series. This new collection of limited-edition, high-rye bourbons pushes the boundaries of bourbon craftsmanship, exploring innovative grains, recipes, and maturation techniques.
A Bourbon Born from a Happy Accident
The inspiration for Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 1 came from an unexpected discovery—a barrel experiment from 2015 that yielded exceptionally unique whiskey. Rather than keeping it hidden, Master Distiller Ian Stirsman decided to share it with the world, marking the first release in this exclusive series.
“The Experimental Series is our new creative playground, where distilling heritage meets bold innovation. Our goal is to make our chapter in the long legacy of Remus Bourbon one that’s worth reading. I look forward to bringing something new to bourbon drinkers year after year,” said Ian Stirsman.
