Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson F is a 2023 limited-release bourbon aged for at least ten years on floors 4 and 5 of the Camp Nelson Rickhouse in Kentucky. Bottled at 117.6 proof with a mashbill of 75% corn, 13% rye and 12% malted barley, it hosts a suggested retail price of $300.
There's not as much fruit on the palate as on the nose, but it's still not overly rich or sweet since that leathery note ushers the spices along into the finish.
There’s no way around it: This is a very delicious bourbon from Wild Turkey, and to me it’s more of a stand-out in terms of the liquid than the Camp Nelson C was.
First, a quick opinion about this Single Rickhouse release of Camp Nelson F: it rocked! It had everything I wanted in a Turkey product and was even extra-rye forward (which I am a fan of).
In short, Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson F not only showcases the best of that aging location, but it may also represent the best of contemporary Wild Turkey whiskey.
