Wild Turkey Rare Breed Barrel Proof Bourbon

Flavour and nose wise, rare breed actually isn't too different from your standard bourbons like buffalo trace. But it brought the whole flavour profile a level above, and managed to prevent any of the flavour to feel over prominent. The proof is still a tad too high an burny for me though. Edit: give it a splash or two of water and it opens up even nicer. The floral and caramel essence burst is satisfying!

I enjoy most bourbon neat, but find this one most enjoyable on ice. This is very oaky to me, yet sweet. Drinking on ice it’s difficult to really get a nose on it so I may have to review again on a neat pour. A very enjoyable night cap.

Pine nut and vanilla nose. Caramel organge cream, and dark fruit spice finish
