Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Single Barrel Bourbon

This is a Russell's Renegades pick from RareBird101. Warehouse E from Tyrone, 4th floor and is just shy of 9 years old. This barrel was rumored to be a little off balance as a RR pick at 110 proof so Rarebird101 had it diluted down to 101 and brought forward as a Kentucky Spirit pick. It's a pretty good pick that doesn't leave me with much cherry but it's a really good balance of sweet and spicy. Nose: Vanilla frosting is dominant. I get some fall leaves, cloves, and a lemon tea scent. It smells like a sweeter version of a hot toddy. Palate: Vanilla, Carmel and honey steal the show early. Then some nutmeg, apple and oak arrive. Finish: it's a long finish of toffee, vanilla, honey, apple, cinnamon, more carmel and then some nutmeg and more cinnamon. Very balanced pick and I enjoy the sweet and spice transitions on the long finish.

Vanilla, orange citrus, light pepper

First time trying. Enjoying neat Nose - bananas, vanilla, oak, fruit notes Taste - nice light sweet beginning. Transition into a thick and rich honey with a oak and spicy finish with some heat. Overall - not impressed. This was supposed to be a premium version of wt101 but I feel like there is no difference here. It’s a good bourbon but the value is not there. Save you some money and buy wt101 instead
