Do not infer a controlled causal relationship between entry-proof changes and vintage flavor. Production capacity is expressed as proof gallons in the specifications, not ordinary liquid gallons. Product facts are historical snapshots.

The account dates barrel-entry proof increases from 107 to 110 in 2004 and to 115 in 2006, quoting the problem of barrels dropping below target bottling proof. Campari acquired Wild Turkey in 2009; the new distillery opened in 2011. Eddie’s 81-proof product involved barrel selection, not merely dilution of an unchanged recipe. Russell’s Reserve single-barrel bourbon followed in 2013 and private selections in 2014.

Entry proof, corporate transition, and modern production
Verified against supplied PDF as an attributed account; verification does not establish the external truth of every source claim. Fresh audit: entry-proof change is not a controlled flavor experiment. Historical capacity must remain proof-gallon maximum, not achieved output.
