Remus Gatsby Reserve 15 Year Bourbon is an ultra-limited, luxurious expression from Ross & Squibb Distillery (formerly MGP) in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Aged for a full 15 years, this high-aged straight bourbon is inspired by the opulence of the Roaring Twenties and the legacy of bootlegger George Remus, often considered a real-life “Great Gatsby.”
Bottled at cask strength and non-chill filtered, Gatsby Reserve delivers a decadent, complex profile that celebrates rare American whiskey craftsmanship and literary allure.
