Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon: A Rare Expression of Mastery
In the world of ultra-aged American whiskey, few names elicit reverence like Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon. As the latest crown jewel in Redemption Whiskey’s esteemed Ancients Series, this limited-edition release embodies patience, precision, and pure artistry. With only 2,400 bottles available nationwide and an SRP of $399.99, this rare find is already drawing acclaim from seasoned collectors and bourbon aficionados alike.
Distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, and aged gracefully for nearly two decades in charred American oak barrels, Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon was shepherded to maturity under the careful eye of Master Blender Alan Kennedy. Known for his meticulous approach to blending and aging, Kennedy unearthed this hidden gem from Redemption’s deepest stock and recognized it for what it was: a once-in-a-generation spirit, perfectly balanced and brimming with complex character.
Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon: Taste, Texture, and Time
True to its reputation, Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon delivers a sensory experience that reveals the depth only time can impart. Bottled at a robust 103.4 proof and non-chill filtered to preserve its full flavor integrity, this bourbon greets the nose with a warm burst of oak, followed by an elegant wave of cherry jam, spiced cinnamon, and a breath of cooling mint. Each inhale feels deliberate, foreshadowing the complexity of what’s to come.

The palate is a tour of layered richness—ripe cherry interlaces with the bourbon’s rye-forward backbone, while sweet corn, toasted oak, and subtle hints of vanilla and leather round out its luxurious mouthfeel. The finish is confidently medium-to-long, leaving echoes of cherry, oak, and vanilla to linger gracefully.
For the purist, this bourbon shines best neat, allowing its full profile to evolve sip by sip. On a single rock, the cooler temperature reveals additional dimensions—like a whispered note of leather or a final flicker of spice. However you enjoy it, Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon, is a legacy in a glass.
Pre-orders for this exclusive expression open on Father’s Day via ReserveBar.com, and given the buzz already surrounding its release, bottles are expected to sell out fast. Whether you’re an experienced collector or simply a fan of complex, mature bourbon, this is a bottle that deserves a place on your top shelf.
