Wild Turkey Rare Breed Barrel Proof Rye Bourbon 750ml by Jimmy Russell

Classification: Straight Rye Company: Campari Group Distillery: Wild Turkey Release Date: Ongoing Proof: 112.2 (Barrel Proof) Age: NAS Mashbill: 51% Rye, 37% Corn, 12% Malted Barley Color: Copper MSRP: $60 (2020) Official Website Wild Turkey uses a single mashbill for all of their standard rye products, including Rare Breed Rye. This is the first ever barrel proof rye for the company. It’s also non-chilled filtered, which joins only Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel Rye and Cornerstone Rye as the company's other non-chilled filtered brands. Wild Turkey’s barrel entry proof (the proof the distillate enters the barrel for aging) is relatively low compared to competitors, which results in a lower barrel proof than others on the market. NOSE A bright and expressive aroma that is flushed with lemon, green apple, melted caramel, and pie crust. There’s a vein of cinnamon, black pepper, and rye grain spiraled throughout that adds welcomed spice. There’s also a waft of Lipton
