"Wild Turkey Rare Breed Bourbon: The round, rich nose has hints of wildflowers, caramel, oak, tobacco and leather. The body is thick and syrupy and the palate is buttery sweet with touches of honey and the same leather and tobacco notes found in the nose, but then a burst of spices come through and make this whiskey incredibly complex. The finish is long, luxurious and spicy." 95 Points - Wine Enthusiast
"Wild Turkey Rare Breed Bourbon: Nose - Gorgeous honey, diced dates, old leather and rye with a teasing sprinkling of spice. Magnificent. Palate - Massively intense launch, waxy honeycomb with fabulously controlled Demarara sweetness and an edge of rye. Finish - Long lightly liquoriced with the honey hanging on, as does the rye and a soft build up of cocoa. Comments - A big bourbon with the proportions being generous and almost perfectly proportioned." - Jim Murray, Whisky Magazine, Issue 10 |
