Other Notes:
Named in honor of legendary Master Distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell. It utilizes Wild Turkey’s single rye mash bill, resulting in a whiskey often described as having an elegant yet bold profile, balancing the rye grain’s inherent spice with notable sweetness and a creamy mouthfeel. Typically aged around 6–8 years in No. 4 char barrels, provides a consistent, high-quality, and complex sipping experience.
