Blood Oath Pact No. 8 Bourbon Whiskey 750mL is a masterful, limited-edition release that continues Lux Row Distillers’ legacy of blending artistry and innovation. Created by master blender John Rempe, this eighth installment of the iconic Blood Oath series unites three exceptional Kentucky straight bourbons — one aged 14 years, one aged 11 years, and one aged 8 years finished in Calvados casks from Normandy, France.

The Calvados cask finish brings a refined apple and pear sweetness that complements the deep oak, caramel, and vanilla notes of well-aged bourbon. Bottled at 98.6 proof (49.3% ABV) — the signature proof symbolizing the “bond of the pact” — Blood Oath Pact No. 8 delivers a rich, full-bodied flavor experience that’s both elegant and bold. Housed in its signature wooden display box, this rare bourbon is a collector’s treasure and a testament to craftsmanship, patience, and perfection.
