In honor of Father’s Day, Wild Turkey Russell’s Reserve, the small-batched, ten-year-old bourbon distilled by father-son team Jimmy and Eddie Russell, is partnering with Operation Once in a Lifetime (OOIAL), -- a non-profit organization that provides resources to U.S. Service members -- to bring families together by helping to provide flights home for members of our Armed Forces. During the month of June, for every bottle of Russell’s Reserve sold, a donation will be made to OOIAL to help provide flights home for members of our Armed Forcesthe organization created to make dreams come true for our servicemen and women, and. Jimmy and Eddie think no dream is more appropriate on Father’s Day than being able to spend time with family.
So for the guy who has everything? A gift not only made by a father and son, but one that will ensure this Father's Day will be one that some families will never forget. Now there's a reason to raise a glass.
