I have had the unbelievable good fortune to taste on multiple occasions with Eddie Russell, the legend behind Wild Turkey & Russell’s Reserve. As the saying goes, that guy has probably forgotten more about Whiskey than most people will ever know.
The first time we were in the Rickhouse going from barrel to barrel, I swear I thought he was messing with me. It must have been over 100 barrels. Halfway through I realized what was happening. He was separating with me the barrels that he wanted to mark for his “single barrel” program & the ones that he wanted to blend together for his 10-year Reserve.
One of the newer and more interesting items in the Russell’s catalog is their 6-year Reserve Rye. As always, this is a pretty special and fairly unique blend that doesn’t get mailed in like some do with their Rye. It seems like there’s a formula. But Eddie and Jimmy Russell don’t follow the crowd, they blaze their own trail which is why I think this Rye sings, especially at this great price. It’s kind of like a hybrid between a high rye bourbon and a traditional rye. Either way, it’s expressive, it’s smooth and has great notes of vanilla, spice, lemon zest, caramel and black pepper. How could a Rye this good be under $40?!?

Bulleit isn’t usually one to come out with too many new or limited releases, but the ‘Frontier’ Limited Release bucks that trend. This American Single Malt was made with 100% malted barley, aged in new American spiced oak casks, and bottled at 43% alcohol. It hits with notes of freshly baked pumpernickel bread, candied orange, dried fruits, and maple syrup. She’s a beauty – just wish I had more to sell!
Today I snagged a really special single barrel that I have been working on for nearly two years now with Old Forester. It’s a 128.2 proof dynamo that will blow you away, and you’ll love every single sip. The nose is of fresh leather, baking spices & cocoa. On the pallet, this one is a monster & hits you with baked apple. brown sugar, vanilla & cinnamon. The finish goes on for two days long with notes of fig, cherries & clove. It’s big, but she’s a beauty.
The juice here is so pure and elegant, it tastes much more like a $80/bottle of Tequila than one going for half the price, but that’s why I love these single barrel deals so much. The value is insane. This Reposado spent just under 12 months in used bourbon barrels. Golden brown with fresh agave, oak & vanilla. Remarkably smooth finish. This is one of those oddball tequila’s that is good enough to just sip on the rocks but cheap enough to use to make one hell of a margarita.
Rich and creamy notes of toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, and fresh baked Bundt cake immediately flood the sense’s as soon as you pop this one open. Bottled at 100-Proof, you get a little bit of heat on the front palate followed by rich oak, leather and freshly baked bread. As it starts to open, you get some sweeter, creamy vanilla notes that cream in as well as campfire s’mores and a dash of pepper. The finish is long, and a bit spicy which leaves a memorable aftertaste and leaves you wanting more.
