Wild Turkey American Spirit

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 50.5%

Score: 92 Points

Wild Turkey American SpiritJimmy Russell’s not a big fan of older bourbons, and this 15-year-old is as far as he’ll take Wild Turkey. The nose is light with subtle oak and vanilla notes. The taste is honey-sweet witha kick of  black pepper, smooth with no over-oakiness, but woody like a warm campfire. The finish is tart and lingering with a slight sweetness.
