Astonishing Rye Whiskey for cozy evenings.

When it comes to Whiskeys, Jimmy and Eddie Russell are the Alpha and the Omega. Together, they have almost a century of tenure. Master Distiller Jimmy has been helming the Wild Turkey Distillery since 1954 and the man, who has reportedly never been drunk, is a real Bourbon aristocrat. Whatever he and his son touch turn to gold. So, let's call them the Midases of Whiskey.

This time, they hand-picked the best barrels of Rye Whiskey after at least six years of aging. What ended up in the bottle is pure poetry of almond, pepper and allspice flavors. Russell's Reserve 6 YO Small Batch Rye Whiskey is, first of all, a mouthful, but mostly a top-notch Spirit made using an ancient recipe. The aforementioned barrels are American oak charred with a #4 char (yes, the famous alligator category). The Whiskey is bottled by hand and is one of the top six Rye Whiskies (according to Drink Spirits). Earning the Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition is also something worth mentioning. It's a Whiskey one should drink slowly, enjoying all the little surprises it brings with every sip.

Nose / Aroma / Smell
Introductory aroma of caramel followed by a welcoming tsunami of rye on the nose. Lovely notes of red berries, vanilla and butterscotch, too.

Flavor / Taste / Palate
Rye, vanilla, caramel and wood flavors are leading the profile, letting touches of pepper and leather to appear.

Finish
Balanced, long and woody finish with notes of rye and caramel.
