Wild Turkey Master's Keep 17 Year

I can get caramel and raisin on the nose, and the body is RIDICULOUSLY smooth. The flavors are so subtle it takes some time to pick them out. The raisin carries through on the body, along with the flavors of sangria. There is literally zero heat and zero spice on the backend. It’s remarkable. The body hits and dissolves almost immediately. On this very dry finish, the sangria transitions to a lemon zest that lingers longer than I expected. Even now, I still have lemon flavor. Not my favorite entry in the Master’s Keep series, but genuinely complex and enjoyable.

smooth, vanilla and oak, with almond extract/cherry

I was somewhat disappointed with this one. Certain medicinal and metallic notes that overwhelmed it for me.
