Wild Turkey 101 Proof is an American whiskey of great character, distilled and bottled by the Wild Turkey distillery, located in the heart of Kentucky. With an alcohol content of 50.5%, this bourbon stands out for its robustness and aromatic intensity.

Produced following the traditions of the Russell family, master distillers for over 60 years, Wild Turkey 101 Proof offers a complex aromatic profile. On the nose, you can detect notes of vanilla, caramel, and toasted wood, enriched with a spicy undertone of pepper and nutmeg. On the palate, it expresses a rich range of flavors from sweet notes of molasses and chocolate to the more astringent ones of leather and tobacco, with a long, spicy finish that pleasantly lingers.

Recommended for those seeking a powerful and deep bourbon, Wild Turkey 101 is ideal for being enjoyed neat or with a few ice cubes, allowing you to appreciate all the nuances of its rich bouquet. Its intensity also makes it an excellent choice for robust cocktails like the Old Fashioned or the Whiskey Sour, where it can truly make a difference in terms of taste and depth.
