Wild Turkey Rare Breed stands as a definitive benchmark for barrel proof bourbon. This authentic spirit creates a unique marriage of Wild Turkey stock aged for six, eight, and twelve years. Unlike standard bottlings, it is bottled directly from the cask without any added water to lower the proof. This preserves the bold spirit and unfiltered character exactly as the distillers intended, offering a sipping experience akin to drinking straight from the barrel.
The liquid carries a distinctive amber hue, a result of aging in American White Oak barrels with a heavy Number 4 "alligator" char. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of spring flowers, black pepper, and almonds, layered with rich notes of honey and dates. The palate is remarkably smooth despite its high strength. Intense flavors of vanilla fudge, toffee, and candied orange zest merge with savory hints of cooked sweet corn and clove. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a warming impression of spice and cold smoke. This is a legendary expression best enjoyed neat or on the rocks to fully appreciate its exceptional mouthfeel and depth.
