Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse Bourbon Whiskey

Inspired by the unique conditions of the storied rickhouses at the Wild Turkey Distilling Co, the Single Rickhouse collection explores the often-unsung contributions specific barrel resting places can have on a whiskeys final character. Each limited time offerings in the annual series features whiskey drawn entirely from a single rickhouse, celebrating the varied nuances of each aging environment. The collection seeks to prove that the where can be just as important as the how when it comes to exquisitely crafted whiskey, all while inviting Russells fans closer into the fold with more information about the origins and influences on their favorite bourbons.
