Tasting Notes

Non-chill-filtered single barrels at 110 proof, and the format that store picks have made a cult of. Concentrated Wild Turkey character with a texture the standard bottlings do not have.

Nose

deep char, vanilla, orange oil, pepper

Palate

caramel, rye spice, tobacco, oak

Finish

long, spicy, drying

Best enjoyed neat, old-fashioned.
