Redemption Whiskey -Redemption 18YO Bottle

Redemption Whiskey expands its Ancients Series collection with the release of Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon, a limited-edition expression. 

Aged for nearly two decades and bottled in extremely limited supply, this bourbon is expected to sell out quickly – the supply will be available in select markets for pre-order on ReserveBar.com beginning on Father’s Day, June 15.

Distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon was once a hidden treasure — rediscovered under the guidance of Master Blender Alan Kennedy. 

Bourbons of this age are notoriously difficult to perfect, often losing balance or acquiring harsh characteristics over time. Through Kennedy’s palate and blending techniques, this release reached peak maturity with depth and complexity.

“Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon is one of the rarest and most complex expressions we’ve ever had the privilege to release,” Kennedy said in a news release. “Redemption is a brand about character and soul. Crafting a bourbon of this age and quality is incredibly rare, and when I tasted the liquid, I knew it deserved to be shared.”

Aged in charred American oak barrels, this bourbon is non-chill filtered to preserve every nuance of its exceptional character. The result is a bourbon that unfolds beautifully with each sip — an intricate flavor profile that evolves with time. 

Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon is bottled at 103.4 proof. With only 2,400 bottles available, Redemption 18-Year-Old Bourbon will be available beginning in June with a suggested retail price of $399.99 for a 750mL bottle. Consumers can purchase the limited-edition offering in store and online at ReserveBar.com (where available).
