Lux Row Announces Release of Second Blood Oath Trilogy

Bourbon

August 31, 2021

Lux Row Distillers announced the release of Blood Oath Trilogy – Second Edition, the latest collection of limited-release bourbons, or “Pacts,” created by Lux Row Master Distiller John Rempe.

The new collection includes Pacts 4, 5 and 6, with 1,400 sets available to the public. The newest Blood Oath Trilogy will be available in late September.

In 2014, Rempe decided to create a bourbon using a blend of three unique Kentucky straight bourbon whiskeys, according to a Lux Row news release. The following year, the idea becamse the Blood Oath series. The name refers to a promise Rempe made to keep the blend of Kentucky straight bourbon whiskeys a secret known only to him, as well as a promise to create the best bourbon for bourbon connoisseurs.

Every year Rempe adds a new Pact to the Blood Oath family. Each Pact comes in at 98.6 proof (49.3% ABV), is carefully crafted by Rempe and will never be repeated. 

The second Blood Oath Trilogy contains Pacts 4, 5 and 6 – reserved since 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively – and is packaged in a black wooden display box designed to highlight each Pact’s distinctive label. The bourbons are:

  • Blood Oath Pact 4 is a blend of an extra-aged 12-year bourbon, a rich 10-year bourbon and a 9-year bourbon finished in toasted barrels for seven months.
  • Blood Oath Pact 5 is a blend of a 13-year mahogany bourbon, peppery with shavings of dark chocolate; an 11-year wheated bourbon, and an 8-year bourbon finished in Caribbean rum barrels. 
  • Pact 6 rounds out the Trilogy with a blend of a 14-year ryed bourbon; an 8-year ryed bourbon, and a 7-year ryed bourbon finished in cognac casks. 

The trio of whiskeys has an SRP of $799.
