I sampled this from a mini and neat in a Glencairn as always. This pour is from an old label 375ml bottle I picked up for $12 at one of those combined bar/liquor sales joints. Taste: Caramel and vanilla for days; Jimmy Russell is telling you the truth when he says that's what he tastes in his bourbon. Even on those bad days though I found you can’t go wrong with this one as a mixer. Well we gave this bourbon a score, that at the time seemed valid, but much later (27 reviews later to be precise) would still be our 3rd highest ever. if you like spicier bourbon. It just never lets you down. Is this still true in recent bottlings? Press J to jump to the feed. This is a solid bourbon for a great price (paid $22). Then back to brown sugar. The bit of youth in the modern expression doesn’t show up in the old label. From what I understand, Wild Turkey puts their ⦠This one will become a staple in my bar for now alongside the Wellers and Four Roses. Here's my original review that is over a year old. Wild Turkey 101 has its roots in a New York grocery store. Coming in at a similar MSRP, on paper Eagle Rare ⦠I bought this bottle from a local store for about $24. Wild Turkey has a distinct flavor profile that seems to carry across their Bourbons and even into their Ryes. I have a bottle in the cabinet currently and the only thing I can really knock about WT 101 is that it tastes a little young. If that young/raw alcohol in the mouth could be eliminated, this would be a mainstay on my shelf. Great review! Iâve had plenty of experience with 8-year-old Wild Turkey ⦠I found it’s a quite a bit sweeter in a cocktail than I get from my usual Rittenhouse base which was a nice change of pace. Taste: sweet and cinnamon spice, some peppery orange notes in the background. Wild Turkey 101 Bottling Note This bottling of Wild Turkey has been aged for at least 6 years before coming out of the barrel at 109 proof, it is only diluted slightly before bottling at 101 ⦠Taste: Caramel, vanilla, baking spice, clove, cinnamon, cracked black pepper, orange peel and nuts. The Wild Turkey 101 is well known as a solid whiskey and would be high up on most peoples list as a daily drinker. There was also a berry like smell---almost like cranberries. The first bottle Iâll be tasting is a 2013 âtransitional labelâ Wild Turkey 101. I thought I still tasted some youth, though not nearly as much as some competitors where you get the feeling that they are bottling 4 years old on the day. The proof adds some welcome spice and interest. I don't know why this Bourbon gets a bad rap especially when the juice in the bottle is far superior to any of the cinnamon whiskey that is all the rage now. Nose: lots of caramel and vanilla, honey and oak. Wild Turkey 101 Rye was once a mainstay in the rye whiskey section of a liquor store. Ive picked it up in the 101 Bourbon, Kentucky Spirit, Rare Breed WT-03RB and the 101 Rye. Will have to revisit the rare breed. About 20 years ago WT101 sported a 8 year old age statement and is supposedly very good. Once that subsides more pleasant flavors come in full and thick. I'll probably re-post this review in its own thread for my records later. 0.75/1. Review #7-8 WILD TURKEY 101 VS BUFFALO TRACE GARY'S SELECT. Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit, the single barrel version of 101, is an even better representation of the Wild Turkey flavor profile except itâs more than double the price. Palate: A bit spicier than the nose leads on, though the sweet core leads before the spice comes rushing in. A couple of days though it just didn’t sit well with me. Taste - Nutter Butters, vanilla, honey, getting some of the herbal (mint) and spicy notes, including a bit of nutmeg this time, on the development. Typically appreciated in different ways, however. However, these bottles are highly sought after and command a price to match. I don't drink it nearly as much as I used to but I just poured a glass and I can't help but be disappointed. I get my Wild Turkey 101 â¦
