Russell’s Reserve Single Rickhouse 2022 Camp Nelson C Bourbon Whiskey
Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse 2022 — Camp Nelson C. A limited annual release from Wild Turkey selecting barrels exclusively from a single rickhouse location, with Camp Nelson C being one of the most historically significant warehouse sites in the Wild Turkey aging system.
Camp Nelson is one of Wild Turkey's off-site aging campuses in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky — named for a Civil War-era freedmen's settlement that stood near the current warehouse location. Camp Nelson C is a specific rick house at that campus, and this 2022 Single Rickhouse release draws entirely from barrels aged in that building. The Single Rickhouse program isolates one warehouse's collective character rather than blending across sites, allowing collectors and enthusiasts to directly experience how a specific aging environment shapes Wild Turkey's high-rye mashbill over time.
The Camp Nelson C rick house produces a character distinct from Wild Turkey's Lawrenceburg campus warehouses due to differences in elevation, airflow, temperature cycling, and proximity to the Kentucky River. The 2022 release is the most recent Camp Nelson C bottling and the only year currently in the Wooden Cork collection.
