Wild Turkey Rare Breed

Classification: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Proof: 116.8 (58.5%) Age: 6 Years Mashbill: Corn 75%, Rye 13%, Malted Barley 12% Distillery: Wild Turkey Austin Nichols, Lawrenceburg, KY Price: $40 - $50 Color: Dark Amber/Medium Copper Nose: Pretty subtle aroma, not strong alcohol aroma for a higher proof bourbon. Notes of vanilla and spice Palate: Bold rye spice, sweet tobacco, vanilla, oak, char, and black pepper Finish: Smooth and warm, touch on the dry side, smoky, and spicy Personal Rating: 7.25/10 Notes: I enjoyed this bourbon, for me it tastes similar to Wild Turkey 101 but has a little more of the char flavor from the barrel. Good for sipping on a crisp evening indoors. I usually prefer to drink my bourbon neat, but you could definitely enjoy this on the rocks or with a splash of water

Michigan - $41. Nose (Neat): Full of spice with a vanilla and a light candied apple sweetness. Palate (Neat): Strong spice from the beginning with a medium alcohol heat. Second sip brings on some slight sweetness and light leather with more spices. The more I drink, the smoother it gets to where there is more sweetness and dry nutty flavors of pecan. I prefer this on ice because it cuts the heat and really smoothens out the spice to reveal more sweet flavor and a long enjoyable mouth feel and lingering cinnamon finish.
