Wild Turkey – Rare Breed Barrel Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Wild Turkey Rare Breed is a Kentucky straight bourbon bottled at barrel proof. The nose opens with cotton candy, roasting marshmallows, baked apples and cornbread batter, followed by caramel apples, pumpkin pie and roasted pecans. Brown-sugar butter dominates around mid-palate and leads into a long finish. Adding water brings out more nuanced fruit, spice and sweetness, so the bourbon tastes quite different when diluted.
