Rare Character Bourbon Limited Release 2025 Batch 3

Rare Character’s 2025 RCLR Batch 3 is a limited edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon that embodies the brand’s signature blend of age, depth, and artistry. Sourced from Kentucky and Indiana, this small batch marries bourbons aged from 6.5 to 15 years, each selected for its unique balance of wheated and rye-forward mash bills. The whiskey undergoes a two-month integration period before bottling at a bold 114.36 proof, showcasing both complexity and strength.

On the nose, this bourbon opens with dried cherries, brown sugar, cinnamon, and tobacco, wrapped in warm toasted oak. The palate is rich and layered, offering flavors of brown butter, cherry cola, caramel, vanilla, and hints of orange zest and honey graham cracker. A long, satisfying finish delivers deep oak, sweet spice, and faint traces of fruit and tobacco, making each sip a slow-burning reward.

Ideal for seasoned bourbon drinkers, Rare Character RCLR Batch 3 shines best when sipped neat or with a few drops of water to open up its full character. This non-chill filtered release is not a single barrel, but a thoughtful small batch blend designed for those who appreciate powerful, age-driven whiskeys that hold nothing back. Availability is limited, making it a prized find for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
