Description

Wild Turkey Rare Breed Barrel Proof Batch W-T-01-91 is a special barrel proof release from Wild Turkey distillery in Lawrenceburg, KY. It is blended from barrels of 6 to 12 year old bourbon. Bottled at barrel proof and non-chill filtered, preserving the full spectrum of oils, esters, and congeners that chill filtration would otherwise strip away. The Wild Turkey distillery, then known as Boulevard, was built in 1935 by the Ripy Brothers in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. The Wild Turkey brand name originated around 1941 when some, shared on a hunting trip, was referred to as 'some of that wild turkey whiskey'.

The unpeated designation makes this less of a peat-led choice. The notes focus instead on caramel, orange peel and baking spice, with charred oak adding an oak-forward edge rather than evidence of peat smoke.

The sweetness here has a firm counterweight in the spice. Dense toffee, brown sugar and maple syrup on the palate meet cinnamon and black pepper; that contrast particularly appeals to me, with the spice giving the sweeter notes definition. On the nose, warm toasted caramel and vanilla sit alongside orange peel, charred oak and baking spice, setting up that relationship without quite repeating it. The finish carries lingering dark sweetness and persistent baking spice, then a dry oak grip. Its long, powerful finish and rich oak may be less appealing to someone seeking a gentler bourbon. For a preference that leans toward spice, though, the interplay with sweetness is the main attraction.
