An accidental game of lost-and-found that ends rather well.

In 1869, the Ripy Brothers started distilling on Wild Turkey Hill near Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. The namesake product became their number one seller and the name of the distillery was changed to reflect that success. The Ripy Family sold the distillery in 1952, and then the normal rounds of mergers and acquisition occurred. Campari Group out of Italy owns them now and they produce a wide range of Bourbons under the very popular Wild Turkey name along with several other brands. All under the watchful eyes and experienced hands of the only father-son master distiller team in the business — Jimmy and Eddie Russell.

Wild Turkey Bourbon Master's Keep 17 Year is the oldest Bourbon they’ve ever released… and it happened by accident. Seems they ran out of storage space in the wooden rick-houses at the Wild Turkey Distillery, so a bunch of barrels were moved from the lowland stone warehouse at Old Crow. When space opened up, they moved them back into a metal and wood one. All that movement and the time spent in stone meant more wood contact with less water and alcohol evaporation (angel’s share). When inventory was taken, they found a bunch of seventeen-year-old casks that tasted like their best Bourbon… but better.
