Wild Turkey Longbranch

I need more time with it to decide. I find it a bit light. Very cohesive, no off notes but it could use a higher proof and more finish. Reminds me Russels Reserve but with more fruit. I don't detect the smoke

Sweet on the nose tons of oak, vanilla and Carmel’s very inviting. Very creamy on the mouth, nice and sweet with a ton of Smokey oak on the end. You can really pick up that second filtration to add the Smokey notes. Overall for the price it’s very nice

I bought a bottle at the Turkey Hill Distillery shop prior to the release. In a word, it’s great. Medium body, about the color of honey, and nice and clear. Apple butter, toast, and syrup in the nose; I also noticed the mesquite used to finish the bourbon in and just a slight hint of bacon! It smells like breakfast. Smokey wood, oatmeal, maple syrup, and vanilla. It almost has a peated scotch kind of flavor. The finish maintains a strong Smokey taste and with the sweetness reminiscent of barbecue in the finish. This is a solid bourbon, with a character I doubt can be found in the average bottle. I’ll be keeping a bottle of this around.
