Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit, 50.5%

Price: $54 Issue: Spring 2017 Reviewer: Fred Minnick

An 8 year old from Wild Turkey's Warehouse G, it's classic Turkey on the nose, with a little spice, caramel, nutmeg, oak, and slight hints of lavender. Then sautéed barley, pecan shell, brown sugar, chewing tobacco, and bittersweet chocolate. An earthy oak note blossoms, with a layered caramel chew following this whiskey home to a medium finish.
