Bourbon
Wild Turkey
Lawrenceburg, KY
Nose
Noticeably darker aromatics with deep black cherry, raisin, leather, and a pronounced cherry pipe tobacco quality.
Palate
Rich, chewy, and complex with cherry, tobacco, and leather notes. Full-bodied with minimal water addition required due to lower barrel entry proof of the era.
Finish
Long and complex with lingering tobacco and leather.
Very good
A richly textured expression that showcases the deeper character achievable when barrel entry proof and age work in concert.
