Wild Turkey Straight Rye Whisky is expertly crafted by Master Distiller Jimmy Russell. Remaining true to the tradition of their legendary Bourbons, this Rye whiskey is made with pristine limestone-purified water and the finest grain available to create its distinctive rich and spicy taste. Aged to perfection for a minimum of 4 years, in new and heavily charred white oak barrels, this is how Rye whiskey is meant to be bold and genuine.

Founded in 1869 by the Ripy Brothers on Wild Turkey Hill in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky.Located in Bourbon County, on the edge of the Kentucky River, where crystal clear and stone-filtered water and corn were available, the first and most important ingredients for their bourbon whisky. The yeast used during the fermentation process still is the original strand proprietary to Wild Turkey, which has given their bourbon’s signature flavour for over 60 years.
