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 whiskey’s final character. Each limited time offering in the annual series features whiskey drawn entirely from a single rickhouse, proving that the ‘where’ can be just as important as the ‘how’ when it comes to exquisitely crafted whiskey.
TASTING NOTES
The second entry in the series, the Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse offering from Camp Nelson F is a rare bourbon, crafted from a small batch of barrels from the ‘center cut’ floors 4 and 5. Bottled at a barrel proof of 117.6, and non-chill filtered, this robust, long-lasting bourbon is meant to sip and savor.
COLOR
Rich, dark amber
AROMA
Notes of oak, vanilla, and cinnamon transition to aromas of cherry, raisins and dates.
TASTE
Robust flavors of clove and white pepper give way to sweet notes of caramel, orange peel and dark fruits.
FINISH
A lasting finish with honey and baking spice that gives way to tobacco and mature oak.

My Favorite Bottle of 2023
It retails for a pretty penny, but this was actually the best bourbon I tasted last year and I was able to get it for the best price here.

A Perfect Bourbon?
I am a big fan of Russell’s Reserve 13. Found out I am a huge fan of Russell’s Reserve Rickhouse CN-F. So good that it could be a perfect bourbon.

Great Bourbon
Russell’s have done it again, this is a great bourbon. Very smooth, and packed with a great flavor profile. The only downside is the cost of the bottle.

Great bourbon from the mountains of Kentucky
I haven’t drank all the bourbons this year. I’m sure there’s many that has, but by far this has been one of my favorites. Flavors were great. Appreciate the shipping and the great website the bar tap.
