Opici Wines has been around since 1913 — that’s more than one hundred years of family ownership, operation, and expertise. There was a brief interruption during the dark days of Prohibition, but aside from that little hiccup things have gone very well indeed. The have transformed their operation over the years from being an importer and private bottler of Wines from around the world to an owner of 50 brands of Wines and Spirits who were recently named “Importer of the Year” by Wine Enthusiast magazine.
Being based in the United States, as the Opici Family expanded into spirits it made a lot of sense to add a classic American Whiskey to their Market Street Spirits line. Thus, Rebellion Bourbon was born. Rebellion Bourbon is distilled and aged in the heart of the Bourbon universe — Bardstown, Kentucky. It is a high-corn Bourbon at between 70% and 72% depending on the batch. It is aged eight years in new American oak and bottled at a proper 47% ABV, so you get a heathy dose of flavor and punch that will stand up to your favorite cocktails.

Rebellion
8 Year Old Bourbon

Bourbon was declared "The Official Spirit of America" by an Act of Congress signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1964.
At any given time, there are more barrels of Bourbon in Kentucky than there are people. The population of the Bluegrass State is about 4.4 million. Today there are more than 5 million barrels of Bourbon sitting in the rick-houses of that Old Kentucky Home. That’s nearly 300 bottles of Bourbon per person, or about 60 gallons each.
Straight Bourbon must be matured for at least 2 years. If a bottle has no age statement, it’s at least 4 years old.
Bourbons have very prominent notes of vanilla, as American White Oak is naturally high in vanillins.
Bourbon matures quicker than Scotch due to higher temperatures in American warehouses.
"Remember that iconic poster from World War II showing Rosie the Riveter as a patriotic American woman doing her part for the war effort? Well, hundreds of businesses did their part too, and the Bourbon distillers stepped right up with ‘em.
Distilleries all over Kentucky and Tennessee were re-tooled to distill fuel alcohol and ferment penicillin cultures to treat wounded soldiers."
