Description

Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel is a 110-proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon drawn from a single, hand-selected barrel — non-chill filtered and matured in the deepest No. 4 “alligator” char American white oak, selected by Master Distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell.

First released around 2015, Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel sits near the top of Wild Turkey’s standard bourbon range. Built on Wild Turkey’s single bourbon mashbill of 75% corn, 13% rye, and 12% malted barley, each barrel is bottled on its own rather than blended, so every release carries its own character while keeping the signature toffee and vanilla core. At 110 proof it sits close to Wild Turkey’s barrel-entry strength, and the bourbon carries no age statement though barrels typically run nine to twelve years.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Caramel, toffee, vanilla, and toasted oak with a light cigar-box smokiness
• Palate: Rich and chewy — honeyed vanilla, butter toffee, cherry and citrus fruit, with rye spice and espresso-tinged oak
• Finish: Long and warming with sweet oak, cinnamon, and a touch of leather
