Single Rickhouse - Camp Nelson E (2025)
Inspired by the unique conditions of the storied rickhouses at the Wild Turkey Distilling Co, the Single Rickhouse Collection explores the often-unsung contributions specific barrel resting places can have on a whiskey’s final character. Each limited time offering in the annual series features whiskey drawn entirely from a single rickhouse, proving that the ‘where’ can be just as important as the ‘how’ when it comes to exquisitely crafted whiskey.

ABOUT CAMP NELSON E
The fourth edition of the Single Rickhouse series comes from Camp Nelson E, which was built in 1946 and still stands tall today as one of 5 remaining rickhouses on the property. It is set back deepest on the property amongst the trees, contributing to more shade and an overall cooler climate.
