Wild Turkey Master's Keep Beacon, 59%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2025 ● Reviewer: David Fleming ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Sweet gobs of caramel, vanilla, and toffee on a soft, candy shop nose tempered by muted aged oak, worn leather, and a hint of tobacco leaf. The powerful palate offers jammy raspberry, followed by lively pepper spice and cigar box, while water brings out caramel and vanilla sweetness. A long finish intertwines earthiness and sweetness. It comes on a bit strong on the palate, but there’s no denying its sweet, flavorful, and beautifully aged complexity.
