Rebel bourbon announces annual release of 10-year single barrel

ST. LOUIS - Bardstown, Kentucky-based Rebel Bourbon announced Thursday the release of its annual Rebel 10-Year Single Barrel Bourbon, with limited quantities reaching shelves this month.

The wheated bourbon, bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV), will be available in a limited allocation of 2,600 cases at a suggested retail price of $99.99 per 750mL bottle.

According to the company’s press release, the bourbon features a mash bill of 68% corn, 20% wheat and 12% malt, and is aged for a full decade before being bottled one barrel at a time.

"This year’s 10-Year Single Barrel is a testament to the legacy of Rebel Bourbon," said Rebel Bourbon Master Distiller John Rempe in the statement.

Each bottle includes the barrel number and aged-since date on the label.

The company reports that the bourbon has received several industry accolades, including a Double Gold medal at the 2025 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and Single Barrel American Whiskey of the Year at the 2025 Bartender Spirits Awards.

Rebel Bourbon is produced at Lux Row Distillers, which operates as part of MGP Ingredients Inc. (NASDAQ:MGPI) Branded Spirits division following its acquisition in 2021. According to InvestingPro data, MGP maintains strong financial health with a GOOD overall score, despite its stock trading 65% below its 52-week high of $92.52. The company has consistently paid dividends for 16 consecutive years.

The bourbon is made according to what the company describes as a time-honored wheated recipe dating back to 1849, when it was reportedly invented at the Stitzel-Weller distillery. While MGP faces near-term challenges with analysts forecasting a 25% revenue decline this year, InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently undervalued, with additional insights available in the comprehensive Pro Research Report covering 1,400+ top US stocks.

In other recent news, MGP Ingredients reported mixed financial results for the first quarter of 2025. The company posted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.36, which fell short of the $0.38 forecast, but revenue exceeded expectations, reaching $121.7 million compared to the anticipated $119.82 million. Despite these mixed results, the company experienced a 29% decline in consolidated sales and a 46% drop in adjusted EBITDA, resulting in a net loss of $3.1 million. However, MGP Ingredients continues to focus on its Premium Plus portfolio and product innovations to drive growth.

In leadership developments, Martin Roper has been appointed as the new Chairman of the Board for MGP Ingredients. Roper, who joined the board in April 2025, brings extensive experience from his time at The Boston Beer Company and The Vita Coco Company. Additionally, the board has appointed Jennifer Lowry, Todd Siwak, and Tom Gerke to chair various committees within the organization.

The company reaffirmed its 2025 guidance, projecting net sales between $520 million and $540 million, with adjusted EBITDA expected to range from $105 million to $115 million. MGP Ingredients is also focusing on strengthening its customer partnerships and optimizing its distillery cost structure to improve margins. With these strategic initiatives, MGP Ingredients aims to navigate industry challenges and continue its growth trajectory.
