Flavor Profile Differences

Rye spice is the dividing line here.

  • Rebel 100: A budget wheater at a useful proof. Sweet vanilla, honey and caramel with soft bread notes and very little rye bite.
  • Stellum Bourbon: Barrell's lower-priced, cask-strength line. It drinks gentler than its proof, with vanilla and caramel on top of cinnamon, clove and a long, spicy finish.

Which One Should You Choose?

  • Go with Rebel 100 if you want a sweet, 100-proof wheater for mixing and easy sipping at a lower price point.
  • Go with Stellum Bourbon if you want a cask-strength, multi-state blend that drinks easier than its proof with the texture that comes from skipping chill filtration.

Best enjoyed rocks, old-fashioned, cocktails (Rebel 100); neat, old-fashioned (Stellum Bourbon).
