An Evening With Wild Turkey at Top Ten Liquors Bloomington
About this Event
Join Women Who Whiskey Twin Cities for an evening with Wild Turkey (Campari Group) at the new Top Ten Liquors store in Bloomington! We will be joined by Campari’s American Whiskey portfolio ambassador JoAnn Street, who, in addition to her career in the bourbon industry, also has whiskey running through her veins - as the granddaughter of renowned Master Distiller Jimmy Russell.
Come curious as our guests will have the opportunity to ask JoAnn anything - from her experiences as a Whiskey Ambassador, to joining the family business, her favorite cocktail, what she’s reading, what it’s like being a woman in a male-dominated industry, overrated or underrated trends in whiskey, best piece of advice she’s ever received…you get the picture.
In addition to time with our whiskey ambassador in a dedicated event space, a welcome drink, snacks, and a guided tasting, attendees will also go home with some awesome Wild Turkey swag, thanks to Campari!
Our event partners at Top Ten Liquors and Campari recognize that Women Who Whiskey exists not just for a great time, but also for building community, so we’re coming together for a great cause this evening. The base ticket price from each ticket sold* will be donated to Second Harvest Heartland, a regional leader in hunger relief and member of Feeding America, a nationwide network of more than 200 food banks that help feed people across the country.
Tickets are $31.46* and includes a social hour with welcome drink and sandwiches, guided tasting through four neat pours from the Wild Turkey and Russell's Reserve product line (including some special releases), presentation and Q+A session with JoAnn Street, Wild Turkey swag, giveaway opportunities.

About Wild Turkey Distilling Co
With roots as far back as 1869, Wild Turkey is one of the oldest bourbon brands still on the market today. Getting its name from a distillery executive sharing a pour on a wild turkey hunting trip back in 1940, the original high rye bourbon recipe still remains popular today, even as the product lineup has expanded to include Wild Turkey Rye, special small batch Rare Breed and distiller select Master's Keep bottlings, flavored American Honey series, and Eddie Russell's tribute to his father Jimmy Russell's excellence in whiskey making - Russell's Reserve.
Due to the generosity of the teams at Campari Group/Wild Turkey Distilling Co and Top Ten Liquors, we will be able to donate the base ticket price of this event to Second Harvest Heartland, which does not necessarily represent the full estimated value of the experience. Please make sure to support Top 10 and Wild Turkey as a gesture of gratitude, and consider further donations of time or other resources to Second Harvest Heartland.
