Rebel Bourbon's history dates back to 1849 when William Larue Weller of the W. L. Weller & Sons Company invented the famous recipe that pioneered a wheat-based mash bill to replace rye. This very recipe represented a base for many famous bourbons that were later produced at the Stitzel-Weller distillery. In 1936, the "Rebel Yell" brand was officially registered as a brand of Kentucky bourbon by a former Louisville mayor Charles F. Farnsley.
At the time, only limited batches of bourbon were available exclusively for distribution in the southern United States. In the 1980s, this changed when Rebel Bourbon was acquired by LUXCO Spirited Brands. This was also the decade when Rebel Bourbon, at the time still known under the Rebel Yell brand, became popular with rock stars such as Keith Richards, introducing the bourbon to Billy Idol who later dedicated a whole song to the Rebel Yell bottle. Throughout the years, Rebel Bourbon has remained loyal to its rebellious roots and today, more than 150 years later, it is produced at Lux Row Distillers in Bardstown, Kentucky, the birthplace of bourbon – bringing together its heritage and modern tastes.
While Rebel Bourbon might have risen to fame by replacing rye with wheat, they still recognize the qualities that rye has to offer. With a mash bill consisting of rye grain, corn and malt, their Straight Rye Whiskey is described as a "defiantly smooth whiskey". This is a small batch rye that is produced and sold in limited quantities. Bottled at 90 proof, this smooth, spicy rye has a mildly woody palate where spicy rye is balanced by sweet vanilla notes.
Rebel Straight Rye Whiskey was awarded with a Platinum Medal at the 2018 SIP Awards and with Double Gold at the 2016 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
