Wild Turkey 101 Straight Rye, 50.5%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2019 ● Reviewer: Jeffery Lindenmuth ● Category: Rye Whiskey
Sweet bread pudding and cracked pepper are tinged with wintergreen and earthy oak, the alcohol strikes just a touch sharp. With water, banana, lemon, and vanilla cupcake sweetness appear. On the palate, lively citrus, white pepper, violet candies, and peanuts, before finishing with a tapestry of spices: ginger, allspice, and paprika. Characterful, well-proofed, and tasty stuff. 1-liter bottle
