Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson B Bourbon Whiskey
Product Description:

Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson B Bourbon Whiskey is a rare and exceptional expression from the legendary Wild Turkey distillery, crafted by Master Distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell. This unique bottling is sourced from a single rickhouse—Camp Nelson B—one of the most revered warehouses at Wild Turkey, known for its distinctive aging environment that imparts unparalleled depth and complexity to the bourbon.

What sets this release apart is its single-location aging, which allows the bourbon to develop a richer character, with the barrels receiving optimal heat exposure and air circulation. This results in a bourbon that is bold, full-bodied, and layered, offering an exciting glimpse into the nuanced flavors that can emerge from the rickhouse’s unique conditions.

Limited in availability, Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson B is a must-have for bourbon collectors and connoisseurs who appreciate craftsmanship, tradition, and the complexity that comes from small-batch, location-specific aging.

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Deep amber with golden highlights, reflecting the rich, oaky character that has developed during its time in the Camp Nelson B rickhouse.

• Nose: The nose is rich and inviting, with aromas of toasted oak, warm vanilla, and a hint of caramelized sugar. Subtle layers of dried fruits—dark cherries and figs—are complemented by notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of leather, giving it a beautifully complex and aromatic bouquet.

• Palate: On the palate, this bourbon is full-bodied and smooth, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice. The initial taste is a wave of rich caramel, brown sugar, and honeyed vanilla, quickly followed by warming flavors of cinnamon, baking spice, and oak. The influence of the Camp Nelson B rickhouse shines through with an earthy complexity, bringing forward hints of dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and a touch of tobacco. The mouthfeel is silky yet robust, with a gentle, lingering sweetness.

• Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, with the spice and oak notes fading slowly, leaving a smooth, warm aftertaste of dark chocolate and a faint whisper of smoke. The lasting finish is rich and elegant, making every sip a memorable experience.
