Wild Turkey Longbranch

Neat. Surprised by the nose on my second taste. I think this opened up quite a bit with some extra time opened on the shelf. The nose on this is fantastic. Take a nice deep breath and you’ll get a few waves. A surprising amount of sweet fruit at the front, sweet corn, with a hint of smoke on the back end. Texture has a nice creamy feel, but also thins out a bit. The sugar and char on the tongue is interesting. The taste is much darker notes than I was expecting. Vanilla gives way to chocolate and more smokiness. The legs go back to a fruit. It’s approachable and complex. Much different experience than my first taste.
