Russell's Reserve 2002 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

This straight Bourbon from Wild Turkey is bottled at barrel proof. The luscious aroma evokes nuts, orange peel and spice. Tamed with water, the flavor remains bold, a bit drier than the aroma promises, but still echoing that orange peel and spice. The resiny midpalate is tinged with espresso, finishing with hints of cigar wrapper and sweet spices.
