The historic Lawrenceburg, Indiana-based Ross & Squibb Distillery announced enhancements to its Remus Straight Bourbon Whiskey and Rossville Union Straight Rye Whiskey Single Barrel programs for 2024.

The distillery is offering unique kits for each brand with the option to experience a private, guided tasting of the selections with Master Distiller Ian Stirsman either in-person at the distillery or virtually.

“We’ve set aside some outstanding barrels for our Remus and Rossville Single Barrel selections, each with a distinctive profile,” Stirsman said in a news release. “For those customers who are interested in coming to the distillery, I’m looking forward to personally showing them around and helping them pick out a barrel they will love.”

The in-person private barrel-selection opportunities take place at the distillery and are offered on a reservation-only basis. The onsite experience includes a tour of the 175-year-old distillery and a private sampling in the distillery’s tasting room. The distillery does not offer public tours, which makes the in-person barrel program experience truly special for fans of Remus and Rossville Union. 

Virtual tastings and selections also can be coordinated with customers who order either a Remus or a Rossville Single Barrel program selection kit. The custom selection kits are packaged in a handsome natural wood case containing a sample of three different mash bills, branded glassware and in-depth information about each of the offerings. All virtual tastings are either led by Stirsman or a member of the barrel team.
