Product Description
Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse 2025 750ml is a highly limited, precision-selected bourbon that showcases Wild Turkey’s whiskey-making philosophy at its most focused and intentional. Curated by blackbook for its rarity, provenance, and depth, this annual release is drawn entirely from one specific rickhouse—capturing a singular snapshot of maturation, environment, and barrel interaction.
Hand-selected by Eddie Russell, this Single Rickhouse expression delivers a bold yet composed profile defined by rich caramel, mature oak, dark fruit, and classic Wild Turkey spice. Bottled at barrel strength or near-barrel strength (depending on the 2025 release specifics), it offers intensity without chaos—powerful, layered, and remarkably balanced.
At blackbook, we prioritize bourbons that tell a clear story of where and how they were made. Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse does exactly that, making it a must-have for collectors and serious bourbon drinkers alike.

Why You’ll Love It
