I have read magnificent reviews of this here and on many sites so was very eager to try. My bottle cost about $130 from Total wine. Great packaging and bottle presentation. Poured neat, nose brings that familiar Turkey dusty spice only now its wrapped in a velvety blanket of rich aged sherry. We're talking library top shelf dust bunny along with pile of old saddles, museum hallway, vintage newspapers and seasoned split wood pile alongside wine soaked linens. Palate is dense and full with heavy dark fruits , caramels, leather and spices. Barrel char and white pepper announce to balance sweetness and provide character. Finish is long drying barrel oak and leather with the sherried fruits, dusty spice and some burnt caramel riding shotgun. This is a special whiskey, that cannot be denied. For $130 it better be. I personally find the white pepper just a bit too much for super elite rating. I do appreciate the quality and deep succulent aged flavors enough for A level ranking but honestly would not repurchase at price point.......91/100.....$80-90 im in
