Is the ultra-limited 2026 J. Rieger & Co. Monogram Whiskey worth the $130 price tag? Join Wayne and Rebecca on Your Bourbon Journey as we unbox and taste the newly released 2026 J. Rieger Monogram Whiskey – Kansas City Whiskey Solera Reserve (Bottle 513 of only 1,000!), generously sent to us as a media sample.
Timed for International Sherry Week, this special release showcases true European Solera fractional blending across 10 historic 50- to 100-year-old Oloroso Sherry botas gifted by Spain’s legendary Bodegas Williams & Humbert. With components continuously marrying in the Solera system for 5 to 11 years—and featuring the highest straight rye percentage ever blended into Monogram (30%)—this 100-proof expression punches way above its weight class. Stick around until the end as we pull out our personal bottle of the 2025 J. Rieger Monogram (#1222 of 2,000) for a head-to-head blind-style comparison!
