Legendary bourbon-makers Jimmy and Eddie Russell use their vast knowledge to craft this 10-year-old classic. Aged in No. 4 alligator char barrels and bottled at 90 proof, this is the Russells Reserve bourbon that started it all.

This small-batch bourbon offers a bouquet of vanilla spice followed by rich, creamy toffee on the palate. It finishes quickly with a touch of sweetness.

Tasting Notes:

Colour: An amber and copper hue.

Aroma: Orange peel and citrus with notes of butterscotch, maple, oak, and vanilla.

Taste: Rich, spicy caramel, and vanilla flavors.

Finish: Smooth and sweet, with toffee and spice notes lingering with a mild and pleasant warming.

“A nose of cinnamon, butter, roasted wood and vanilla with a palate consisting of a complex oaky sweetness alongside orange, dark chocolate, leather and baking spices. The finish is long with oh-so-sweet maple and sugar notes.” – Rob Morton, Distiller (92 Points)

“This checks the quintessential boxes of a well-made bourbon. The nose is rich with caramel candies, vanilla, graham cracker, and rich spicy oak. The palate is sweet and nutty, with candied walnuts, pecan pie, oak, and tobacco. Each sip is well balanced, with the sweet, savory, and earthy flavors coming together harmoniously and without any jostling. The finish is sweet and toasty, turning fruitier than the palate, with a healthy balance of oak spice.” – Shane English, Whisky Advocate (92 Points)
