Origins & Craftsmanship
The RCLR (Rare Character Limited Release) series represents the blending mastery of Rare Character Whiskey, founded by Pablo Moix and Peter Nevenglosky. Each batch is composed of carefully selected barrels drawn from across Kentucky and Indiana, chosen for their unique flavor contribution. The goal is to produce limited batches that balance boldness and elegance while showcasing distinct bourbon character.

Batch 10 follows the house style: a blend of premium straight bourbons aged between 6 and 10 years and bottled at high proof (118 proof this batch) for full-bodied texture. It’s non-chill filtered, ensuring flavor integrity and mouthfeel.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: Deep caramel, brown sugar, and orange peel, layered with toffee, baking spice, and toasted oak.

• Palate: A lush blend of vanilla custard, dark cherry, and cinnamon, supported by oak tannin and honeyed grain sweetness. The mid-palate expands into hints of cocoa, leather, and orange zest.

• Finish: Long and warming with lingering notes of toffee, clove, and smoky oak, fading into brown sugar and dark fruit.
