Wild Turkey BOURBON Whiskey 40,5% Vol. 0,7l

Wild Turkey Kentucky Straight Bourbon is the work of Master Distiller Eddie Russell and was introduced in 2011.
It matures for 6 to 8 years in selected oak casks, much longer than any other whiskies in this «weight class».
In addition, 81 American oak casks were used for storage, which have the roasting level «No. 4 char» — i.e. alligator.
Compared to the Scottish colleagues at Ardbeg, Wild Turkey does not make such a big fuss about this fact.

So this Wild Turkey is not a lighter offshoot of the 101 like the 80 proof, but a completely new whisky from Austin Nichols.

Gold Medal and Best in Class Award of the prestigious International Wine & Spirits Competition in London.

Inviting, complex nose with buttery corn, chocolate, caramel and ginger with some floral notes and vanilla.

Lightly carbonated with caramel and vanilla. 

Full and deep in the mouth with some sweet notes on the nose, nicely balanced by ripe fruit.

Pepper and spices fill the finish, creamy over the palate with a long, dry, spice filled finish.
