Russell’s Reserve 16 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon 2003

Category

Eddie has called this arguably Russell’s most complex Bourbon and all you have to do is open it up to see why. Bottled at barrel strength 89.5 proof, Russell’s Reserve 2003 16-Year Bourbon is a treat and a rare one at that. Dark in color with inviting aromas of charred and seasoned oak, the palate reveals bright spice with layers of confectioner’s sugar, burnt caramel, and buttery vanilla and leather. A smoky and smooth finish has lingering oak and sweet notes of caramel and vanilla.

I have just two of these bottles to sell– a treasure for American Whiskey collectors.

There’s not much to say about this one other than it’s one of the best bottles of Bourbon in the world at any price and also one of the harder ones to get your hands on. This is actually from the last barrel that Eddie Russell and Wild Turkey ever made at 107 Barrel Entry Proof for the 16-year (switched to 110 proof in 2005).  Eddie Russell had raved to me about his 2003 16-year, so I asked him for a few bottles to make sure I wasn’t missing out. I started with just 3.. and I’m quickly down to my very last bottle.
