Master Distiller Jimmy Russell and his son Eddie Russell now own Wild Turkey Distillery. (They've been making bourbon for nearly 90 years.) When Jimmy was growing up in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, there were four bourbon distilleries where his family used to tend and work. This Wild Turkey bottling has been aged for at least 6 years and comes out of the barrel at 109 proof; it is only slightly diluted before bottling at 101 proof. Wild Turkey 101 is a multi-award-winning bourbon that received a 92-point score from the Ultimate Spirits Challenge and a Gold Medal from the International Wine & Spirits Competition.
