Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Bourbon

Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

Reviewed June 13, 2024 (edited June 14, 2024)
4.0
4.0 out of 5 stars
I found this bad boy on sale at a liquor store in Cleveland and it’s been a great intro into the world of RR SiB. Nose: for my own curiosity I nosed it straight out of the bottle without resting and quickly got a load of astringent oak and not much else. After resting in a glencairn for 10 minutes it opened up nicely I get nothing but heavy nuttiness that I typically associate with Jim Beam products. Taste: Incredibly smooth and buttery, although not as oily of a mouthfeel as I might expect from a 110 proofer. The nuttiness from the nose follows through big time along with general oakiness you expect from any bourbon. Very light overall but nice depth from the hits of peanut butter throughout. Notes of smooth sweet tea on the finish, really refreshing on this hot summer night. Final thoughts: I wish I knew where to find what specific warehouse this bottle’s from, I’m sure there’s a way to find out but I’m too lazy to figure it out at the moment. I’m really happy with this particular SiB and at $65 I feel like that’s pretty good value. It’s hard to go wrong with any Wild Turkey product in my book and this is no exception

    Did the nuttiness taste like Beam, too?
