Russell's Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Distilled in 2003

“Experiencing for the first time what would become our 2003 expression was one of those unforgettable moments of pure inspiration,” said Russell in a prepared statement. “It’s one of our most complex bourbons, aged longer than most of our spirits, and speaks to what Russell’s Reserve is about—honoring our heritage.” Dark amber in color and bottled at barrel strength 89.5 proof, Russell’s Reserve 2003 Bourbon offers aromas of charred and seasoned oak. The palate reveals bright spice with layers of confectioner’s sugar, burnt caramel, and buttery vanilla and leather. A smoky and smooth finish has lingering oak and sweet notes of caramel and vanilla. - BOTTLE NO. 2647
