A Sacred Masterpiece of Small-Batch Blending

For elite whiskey collectors and enthusiasts who chase unique wood profiles, the annual arrival of the Blood Oath series is a highly anticipated milestone. Concocted in strict secrecy by Lux Row Distillers’ renowned master blender John Rempe, Blood Oath Pact No. 4 stands as a triumph of modern blending. Rempe’s philosophy is simple yet absolute: create a completely unique, unrepeatable bourbon masterpiece for each individual “Pact,” never to be made again. By marrying mature stocks across different age statements and utilizing highly unconventional finishing barrels, Pact No. 4 strikes a flawless equilibrium between traditional Kentucky wood and innovative char characteristics.

The Architecture of the Pact

To construct the magnificent body of Pact No. 4, three distinctly calibrated straight bourbon whiskies were carefully hand-picked from choice rickhouse locations:

• The 12-Year Component: A beautifully mature, heavy-oak bourbon that provides the structural backbone, deep leather, and concentrated wood sugars.

• The 10-Year Component: A silky, sweet bourbon that bridges the gap, infusing the blend with luxurious waves of rich caramel and smooth vanilla bean.

• The 9-Year Component: A spirited bourbon that serves as the creative canvas, finished patiently in hand-selected, deeply toasted exotic oak barrels to bring out an intense, highly fragrant layer of unique baking spices.

A Perfectly Balanced Tasting Experience

Bottled at an uncompromised, highly deliberate 98.6 proof—chosen because it represents the natural temperature of the human body—Pact No. 4 delivers its intricate flavor profiles with immense weight and zero aggressive alcoholic bite.

• Color: Deep, glowing coppery-amber with rich golden reflections.

• Nose: Luxuriously sweet, deep, and highly fragrant. It opens with forward notes of toasted caramel, wildflower honey, and vanilla cream, followed closely by warm baking spices, dark chocolate, and a distinct touch of sweet, charred oak wood.

• Palate: Thick, velvety, and beautifully full-bodied. The tongue is greeted by immediate flavors of rich butterscotch, maple syrup, and dark stone fruits. The mid-palate opens up gracefully to reveal sophisticated layers of cinnamon candy, nutmeg, and the unique, highly fragrant spice derived from the toasted exotic oak.

• Finish: Extraordinarily long, cozy, and warming, leaving behind a sophisticated dry trail of sweet vanilla oak, warm mulling spices, and lingering caramel.

A True Collector’s Trophy Bottle

Presented in a heavy, clear glass apothecary-style flask with a striking black and burnt-orange parchment label, each bottle of Blood Oath Pact No. 4 comes housed inside a gorgeous, rustic dark-stained commemorative wooden display box. Because this is a rare, limited-run past vintage, it represents an outstanding investment piece for premium spirits vaults, an unforgettable high-end gift for a serious whiskey aficionado, or the ultimate prize to pour for a truly special milestone celebration. Best enjoyed completely neat or with just a single drop of distilled water to fully awaken its complex wood aromatics.
