Wild Turkey Rare Breed Barrel Proof Bourbon

Nose: oak, pepper, spice, caramel, strong nice scent. Taste: cinnamon, apple, honey, oak, pepper. Classic bourbon flavors taken up a notch. Finish: long. You can tell the 8+ year age statement is there when you taste it. It’s super rich, Overall review: Finds itself at the top or the barrel proof game for bourbons. Really high proof point but not overwhelming taste, and takes well to a cube or neat.

Really solid bottle. Great price point as well.

Date coded Jan 18, 2021. Neck pour, neat, and didn’t let it sit. Much lighter nose than I expected for the 116.8 proof with spearmint and egg nog and a hint of tobacco. Taste is vanilla and crepes forward with pear, dark fruit (more prune than cherry), and licorice. Medium finish of spice and a punch of char. The proof brings a balanced flavor party without a lot of heat, so this is a very nice sipper, and I understand why it gets lots of raves, especially for the price.

One of my favorites.

Worth the price. This is outstanding.

Vanilla honey cinnamon, burn in mouth and spicy at the end.

Vanilla honey smooth but feel the burn after taste. Amazing whiskey.
