Vanilla and spices on the nose after it breathes for a few minutes after the pour; Classic Oak, traces of rye spice & ever-present vanilla bean on the palate that is typical of a traditional bourbon; long dry slightly spicy and warm finish that reminds you that you’re sipping wild turkey; I love this bourbon as a nostalgic dram that brings back those classic bourbon notes that we all love. All of the Russell family bourbons are top notch, and easy go-to pours for me. Especially this one at $20!!
