Tasting Note:
Russell’s 6 Year Rye is classic, balanced, and quietly confident. Aromas of cracked black pepper, orange peel, and vanilla lead into a palate of rye spice, caramel, and toasted oak. The lower proof keeps things smooth and approachable while still delivering Wild Turkey’s signature depth and structure. The finish is clean and warming, with lingering spice and citrus oil. A versatile rye that works equally well neat or as the backbone of a great Manhattan.

About the Producer:
Russell’s Reserve is the premium line from Wild Turkey, stewarded by legendary master distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell. Built on long fermentation times, low barrel-entry proof, and a flavor-first philosophy, Russell’s whiskeys emphasize balance and consistency over flash. The 6 Year Straight Rye is a foundational expression—approachable, reliable, and unmistakably Wild Turkey in character.
