Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Bourbon, part of the Single Rickhouse Collection, is a limited-release bourbon that explores the influence of a specific rickhouse on the whiskey's flavor profile. Each release in the collection is crafted from barrels aged in a single rickhouse, offering a unique taste experience based on its location. For example, the Camp Nelson B release is known for its high proof (120.2) and notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and cherry. The Camp Nelson F release offers aromas of oak, vanilla, and sweet cream, transitioning to cinnamon, spice, and floral notes on the nose, with flavors of cherry, raisin, and dark honey on the palate, followed by a finish of spice, mature oak, char, and pepper. The Camp Nelson C release, the inaugural release, is rich and decadent, with a unique blend of flavors derived from its optimal center cut floors.

The batch is made up of six production dates that were aged in six different warehouses. The breakdown of barrel storage for Booker's “Kentucky Tea Batch” is as follows: 2% came from the 3rd floor of 7-story warehouse 5, 1% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse X, 1% came from the 4th floor of 9-story warehouse D, 12% came from the 4th floor of 7-story warehouse 1, 24% came from the 5th floor of 7-story warehouse Q, 14% came from the 6th floor of 7-story warehouse Q, 46% came from the 6th floor of 7-story warehouse Z. This batch was pulled on a hot and humid day in July. The color of this liquid is golden amber, and you embrace the dark, sweet vanilla aroma right away. With just one taste, your mouth is filled with rich and sweet flavors of vanilla. The lingering finish isn't overpowering, so soon after you'll want another sip. I made myself a Kentucky Tea with Kentucky Tea Batch, and it brought back memories of my dad sitting at his own kitchen table enjoying his Kentucky Tea with supper.
