Inspired by the unique conditions of the storied rickhouses at the Wild Turkey Distilling Co, the limited edition 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 different, single rickhouse, celebrating the varied nuances of each aging environment.

Just like the Rickhouse C release last year, the barrels used here were chosen by Eddie Russell. However, unlike the Rickhouse C release - which had barrels plucked from the third and fourth floors - Rickhouse F barrels were picked from the fourth and fifth floors. This might explain the 5 proof point difference between the two.

The Camp Nelson F and Camp Nelson C release share a similarity in the age of the barrels which is said to be over 10 years old. I've read rumors that they top out at 15 - making them almost as mature as Russell's Reserve 13 Year Old releases (which are usually a combination of 13 and 18 year old barrels).

Tasting Notes:

Color: Rich, dark amber

Nose: Notes of oak, vanilla, and cinnamon transition to aromas of cherry, raisins and dates.

Palate: 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.

58.8% ABV / 117.6 Proof
