The King of the Bootleggers Meets the Jazz Age
George Remus was the Cincinnati lawyer turned Prohibition-era bootlegger whose story inspired Fitzgerald's Jay Gatsby — and Ross & Squibb's Gatsby Reserve honors both. The 2024 edition marries two high-rye bourbon recipes at cask strength, with the 36%-rye component giving it the spice that sets it apart from the earlier releases.

Tasting Notes
Official Luxco notes: nose of antique leather and tobacco. Palate: cherry syrup mingling with walnut and oak. Finish: lingering walnut, fig, and roasted almonds.
How to Enjoy
At 104.9 proof this is a sipping whiskey first — neat in a Glencairn, with a drop of water to open the rye spice. It also stands up to an Old Fashioned built to honor the era it bottles.
