Russell's single barrel whiskeys are made from the smallest possible volume, a single barrel. Each barrel is a singular expression that reflects its own distinct personality in the liquid.
The Single Barrel Rye is a robust whiskey that strikes a balance of spicy pepper, vanilla, and tobacco flavors. On the nose, lemon, vanilla, and spicy oak with notes of orange peel and ginger. To taste, pepper, vanilla, and tobacco. The finish features pear drops and peppercorn.
Single barrels are a rarity in the world of American rye whiskey, and Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel Rye delivers in a big way. Each hand-selected barrel of Kentucky straight rye whiskey is individually bottled at 104 proof and non-chill filtered to retain the color and rich flavor that comes from aging in No. 4 alligator char barrels.
