With a Rebel Yell, you’ll cry "more, more, more!" 
 
The original Rebel Yell Whiskey was made by the W. L. Weller & Sons Company. And though that distillery popped into existence in 1849, it wasn’t until the mid-1900s that they started bottling American Whiskeys under the Rebel Yell brand. The formula and branding were actually created by a character named Charles R. Farnsley — who served as both Mayor of Louisville, Kentucky, and as a Congressman… politicians and alcohol, right? 
 
Anyway, the name was passed around from company to company for a bit. But throughout its entire history Rebel Yell has been consistently garnering awards and  winning over a loyal group of fans going all the way back a "Certificate of Distinction" from the Centennial Exposition of Paris in 1900. Since the early 1980s, the label has been lovingly attended to by American Whiskey-lover David Sherman’s beverage company, Luxco. They have six core Whiskeys in their line up and you should try them all. 
 
The story goes that Billy Idol was doing shots with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Ron Wood of the Rolling Stones fame at a party. Keith Richards just loved him some hard liquor and he was fond of Rebel Yell — he’s the one who brought the bottle. Billy liked the name and asked the gents if he could borrow it for a song title. If you are a music fan like we are, that’s reason enough to buy it right there. 
 
But Rebel Yell Small Batch Rye Whiskey is a real solid Spirit — chock-full of flavor and spice. But it’s not “punch you in the face with pepper” spice like a lot of Johnny-come-lately brands. It’s more like "kissing a southern girl wearing cinnamon lip gloss" kind of spicy. And at a healthy 45% ABV, we think that this little rebel will make one heck of a bodacious Manhattan.

Michael
Michael,
Very good for the price point. But there are others I go to for every day Rye. But, I would try it again.
 
Gerard
Gerard,
Solid Rye, especially for the price! I would buy this again in a heartbeat.
 
Mike
Mike,
I purchase dthis a few times in the past just to check it out. Quality and I wasn't let down. Just another that didn't stand out to me.
 
James
James,
This was a complete surprise but a very good taste. I will add this to my bar and golf trips for sure. And the price $20 you can't beat that.

Jared
Jared,
I really liked this one. Great price also. I plan to order more of this. Vary smooth easy to drink straight. Thanks
 
Kenneth
Kenneth,
Really smooth Rye for the price, without sacrificing flavor. No single flavor dominates. Best rye to buy for mixer or to drink straight without spending a lot.
 
David
David,
Nice spicy whiskey
 
Anthony
Anthony,
Fairly typical rye, fantastic for cocktails as it is very balance and has enough hints of other flavors that it adds complexity to any drink.
 
Stephen
Stephen,
The Rye is great for the price. It has a nice nutty pallet that I didn't notice until after a couple. The initial is a bit citric but settles down with the nutty, oaken flavor.
 
Adam
Adam,
Too much cinnamon.
 
Robert
Robert,
This was a good sippin' whiskey. I liked the mild bite and subtle vanilla and oak hints.
 
Michelle
Michelle,
Tart. Almost sour. Very strong acid flavors, like cirtus almost. A little light-colored. Not very smokey, and i prefer that smokey taste.
 
Jami
Jami,
Great flavor but a bit too hot for my liking.
 
Ivan
Ivan,
Great cheap whiskey, has some nice spicyness to it, not very complicated. I killed the bottle really fast.
 
Susan
Susan,
I didn't expect it to make a perfect Manhattan, but it did. A smooth taste with a bit of a kick - the kind of kick you want over and over. It's very good for sipping and I could just finish the last sip with a Rebel Yell of my own.
 
Angela
Angela,
Smooth rye. Great tasting in Brooklyn.
 
Fredrick
Fredrick,
Exceptionally smooth and light. Flavor of the rye really comes through. Will consume frequently.
 
William
William,
Light aroma, smooth on the way in and swish. Pleasant flavors. HOT on the exhale! Maybe I will sip this instead... Yep, 2nd drink was sip - much better. Not a bad middle-of-the-road rye.

Not bad for a cheap whiskey, light, corn and a bit of spice.

Very Smooth with a nice finish. And for the price hard to beat. Do wish the rye was a little more pronounced.

Kyle,
You have to be a whiskey drinker to appreciate this, I can understand why Billy Idol wrote the song now. I will be purchasing more.
 
Jose
Jose,
Very smooth nice finish I like a good rye and the price is just right
 
Kevin
Kevin,
I never received the bottle because the GSO Company left the sticky notice on my window and not my front door so I didn't see it until after the GSO employee called to let me know that I had one day left until the bottle was going to be sent back and I was not going to be there all day and didn't have time to call her back. I still want what I have paid for and am looking for a peaceful resolution.

Smooth all around and on the finish. This is my favorite Rye. Delicious!
