One-of-a-kind bourbon release takes the Rebel sponsorship of Richard Childress Racing to a new level

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bardstown, Kentucky-based Rebel Bourbon – the Official Bourbon of Richard Childress Racing – announced the limited-edition release of Kyle Busch 108 Single Barrel Bourbon. Every barrel was selected by two-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion Kyle "Rowdy" Busch and bottled at 108 proof (54% ABV) in honor of Rebel's sponsorship of RCR.

The new limited-edition release is handcrafted according to Rebel's original time-honored wheated recipe since 1849 and aged for a full four years to provide robust flavor and a velvety smooth finish with a hint of spice. An allocation of 5,000 cases (6-in) of Kyle Busch 108 Single Barrel is available nationwide at a suggested minimum retail price of $39.99 per 750mL bottle. 

"We wanted to do something we've never done before, in the spirit of living against the grain and doing things your own way, and KB 108 is the perfect answer," said Philip Lux, Rebel Bourbon brand manager. "Kyle selected every barrel for this one-of-a-kind release with the guidance of Master Distiller John Rempe. Each barrel was hand-bottled, giving each bottle a bit of rebellious character and a flavor profile to match! This special release is made to be enjoyed by collectors and fans of Rebel, Kyle and RCR alike."

Every bottle's front label includes prominent placement of the unique barrel number selected by Busch, plus the bourbon's proof and "aged since" date details. The distinctive label also includes Busch's signature, number and the RCR logo. 

"This sponsorship really is about living life with a rebellious spirit, and I had fun picking barrels on my own terms for this special limited-edition release," said Busch. "I'm proud to have my name on every bottle and excited for fans nationwide to experience something new from Rebel Bourbon and RCR."

Rebel Bourbon has plans for more excitement and fan fun ahead in 2025, and the release of Kyle Busch 108 Single Barrel takes the sponsorship's momentum to a new level. Rebel is a multi-race sponsor of the No. 8 Chevrolet and Busch with an all-new paint scheme born from American white oak Rebel Bourbon barrels and designed to honor the brand's craftsmanship. Busch takes the wheel of the No. 8 Rebel Bourbon Chevrolet in select NASCAR Cup Series races including the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix March 2 in Austin, Texas.
