I STRUGGLED to Find Russell's Reserve 15 Bourbon (Was It Worth It?)

Russell’s Reserve 15 Year Bourbon has been lauded as one of, if not, the best bourbons of 2024. However, I have had a very hard time finding it while bourbon hunting. In this video I document my struggles to find this hard to find bourbon. I also taste and rate it on the Lightning Counter to see where it ranks among all of the other bourbons and whiskeys I have reviewed. Could it really be the best bourbon of 2024?
