Tastes

Love all Wild Turkey but this is something special. Sweet and smooth and exploding with flavor. I put one small ice cube in two fingers and let it melt to bring out the barrel and smoke flavors more. Great great value in this bourbon.

I am a huge fan of the 10 year so I bought this to compare. Waaaay different. It is very spicy with quite a bit less smoke and none of the sweetness the 10 year provides. It is a good bourbon but the 10 year is a great bourbon. This one just seems immature in comparison.

I can get this for $45 and the 18 year is $140. Having said that get THIS one. I didn't try them side by side but they are close enough to say this is either a great value or the 18 year is way overpriced. Very smooth, good amount of smoke, a top notch representation of a Highlands scotch.

I changed my rating from 4 stars to 5, because this is my favorite bourbon right now. It is top notch neat but pop one small ice cube in your pour and wait 15 minutes...it really opens up! Caramel candies with a distant camp fire finish. Absolutely fantastic for a 10 year bourbon.
