Wild Turkey Rare Breed

Wild Turkey's Rare Breed Bourbons are bottled at cask strength, and are often absolutely staggering stuff. The bottles have had a little redesign recently, and look very stylish indeed - though the eponymous turkey on the label looks rather surprised to be there. This particular edition was bottled at 56.4% ABV. 

Tasting Notes

NOSE
Buttery at first, before a big rush of clove and oak.

PALATE
Heavy caramel and chocolate. A touch of smoke develops, it's almost a bit vegetal at points too.

FINISH
Menthol, cut herbs, brown sugar and white pepper.
