Wild Turkey Rare Breed Barrel Proof
116.8 proof NAS Bourbon Wild Turkey 75% corn, 13% rye, 12% malted barley

Robust and warming with prominent caramel and toffee. Brighter citrus notes emerge more distinctly than in lower-proof expressions. Oak present.

Rich and full-flavored with amplified sweetness and complex spice. Layered and intense with substantial body. More flavor complexity than lower-proof siblings.

Long, enveloping close with concentrated heat and depth. Spice and sweetness linger substantially. Warming hug on the back end.

Overall Score
4 / 5
A bold, full-bodied barrel-proof expression that delivers concentrated flavor and impressive complexity with a warming, persistent finish.
