Redemption Whiskey has introduced the '18 Year-Old Bourbon,' an exclusive release within its ultra-premium 'Ancients Series,' known for showcasing exceptional, time-honored American whiskeys. Originally distilled at the historic Lawrenceburg, Indiana facility, this rare bourbon was rediscovered years later and carefully developed by Master Blender Alan Kennedy.
Over the course of 18 years, the spirit matured in charred American oak barrels, acquiring remarkable depth, complexity, and character. Furthermore, the bourbon is non-chill filtered, preserving its full-bodied texture and intricate flavor profile. As such, each sip reveals a layered progression of notes, crafted for connoisseurs who appreciate nuance and age.
Notably, this expression has earned Double Gold at both the 2025 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the New York International Spirits Competition, further affirming its distinction as a standout offering in the world of ultra-premium American bourbons.
