About John Rempe

At Lux Row Distillers, we have a passion for craft. We're a blend of different personalities bound together by a love of bourbon. When trying to describe John E. Rempe's relationship with bourbon, the word "passion" doesn't come close.

John, a certified food scientist with a bachelor's degree in biology from St. Louis University and over 25 years of experience in distillation of spirits, has been at the forefront of crafting world-class bourbons in the company's award-winning portfolio. He has created brands like David Nicholson Reserve, Rebel 10-year, and the ultra-premium Blood Oath series, and has also been heavily involved in the oversight of Luxco's award-winning bourbon portfolio, which includes the Rebel Bourbon, Ezra Brooks, David Nicholson, Daviess County and Blood Oath bourbon families.

He may have a favorite bourbon in the distillery's lineup, but that's a secret he'll never tell.
