With Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel bourbon, the renowned whiskey distiller Jimmy Russell and his son Eddie introduce Wild Turkey’s first bourbon to eschew chill filtering, the process by which whiskeys are rid of fatty acids (and, say detractors, some of their character). A high bottling proof of 110 further intensifies the rich flavor profile of vanilla, toffee and licorice. The whiskey, a permanent addition to the Russell’s Reserve line, has no age statement, but it is roughly eight to nine years old: Available in early March, $50 for a 750-milliliter bottle, wildturkeybourbon.com.
