Jimmy Russell will soon begin his 71st year at Wild Turkey
Distillery, and this fall, he’ll celebrate his 91st birthday.
This week, we’re honoring the Legend of Lawrenceburg with an

friendships with Booker Noe, Parker Beam, and Elmer T. Lee…his

distilling technology…and an eye to his legacy. In the news,

Filmland Spirits founders Troy Bolotnick and Charlie Flint
created their brand as an homage to the classic “B Movies” of the

whiskies stand out on store shelves and in the eyes of the
critics, who have given Filmland Spirits’ whiskies several medals
in recent competitions. Troy Bolotnick joins us on this week’s
WhiskyCast In-Depth, and we’ll have a double feature tasting of
his whiskies in the What I’m Tasting This Week Department. In the
