GeorgeÿRemus was a German-born lawyerÿwho was known as theÿKing of the Bootleggers. During the Prohibition, he defended many arrested bootleggers, but his best client turned out to be himself.ÿ Although trained as a pharmacist who became a lawyer, he found his success as a bootlegger as he found a loophole (or two) in the Volstead Act to craft Bourbon forÿ"medical purposes".
ÿ
His legend continues with George Remus Bourbons which are produced inÿLawrencebourg, Indiana, just miles from where George ran his Prohibition empire. The Bourbonsÿcapture the rebellious Spiritÿand are intended for pleasure, not (only) medicinal purposes.

This expression is theÿ Single Barrel Cask Strength Bourbon.ÿ With a proof of 115.9 it is not for the faint at heart. It is a big bourbon with a long finish. We suggest letting thisÿbottle settle for a week or two after the first pour. After some air and time, it hits you in the face with great flavors and a gentle sweetness. The finish is spectacular and worth it.ÿ ÿTheir is plenty of vanilla, dark cherry, and oak on the palate. This single barrel is a gem and should be enjoyed by all but only 100 of this barrel are left in existence. Get your before they are all gone.ÿ
