On September 10th, 2024, the family of Jimmy Russell, the employees of Wild Turkey, and whiskey enthusiasts from all over the world celebrated the 70th anniversary of Jimmy's time at Wild Turkey. Jimmy started with the distillery back in 1954 and is the oldest living master distiller in spirits. To celebrate this milestone, Wild Turkey created an 8 year 101 proof bourbon which is representative of everything that Jimmy holds dear about this beloved spirit. The best part? It carries an MSRP of only $50. It's been a long time since we've seen a limited offering with this low of a price tag. Join us this week as we review this bottle with a little help from a friend. As if this bottle wasn't enough, our guest host for this week is Cameron Leach from Drums & Drams. Cam has an excellent YouTube channel and we were honored to have him join us for this bottle review. Congratulations to Jimmy Russell and cheers to all!
