Born and raised in Chicago Matt spent the last decade hunting the unattainable only to find the beauty in the everyday affordable Bourbons you can readily find. This break with tradition mirrors the philosophy behind Longbranch bourbon, bringing together the passions of two people and elements of the places that made them to craft a whiskey in the spirit of partnership and friendship. You must be at least 18 years of age to purchase and receive wine and spirits in the United Kingdom. This Kentucky-made product is blended with Texas mesquite and oak charcoal to create a unique flavour.

Wild Turkey are famous for their father and son Master Distilling team of Jimmy and Eddie Russell, Jimmy being known as 'the Buddha of Bourbon' given his 60 year career at Wild Turkey.Their creation - a small batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon, refined with American Oak and Texas mesquite charcoals - was named Longbranch, a reference to an extension of a hand or an invitation for friends to become family. Most of us spent time scrolling and the Instagram algorithm did its job and introduced me to the “Bourbon Bullet Stick.

I couldn’t quite trust what I was tasting, especially after finishing a generous pour of that Master’s Keep. A full-bodied and balanced bourbon, at once fresh, sweet and smoky, all delivered with a rich and rounded mouth-feel. Wild Turkey Longbranch was created in collaboration with brand ambassador and film star Matthew McConaughey.
