The Wild Turkey Straight Rye Whiskey 101 Proof is a high-quality whiskey from the Wild Turkey Distillery, part of the Campari Group, located in Kentucky, USA—a region renowned for both bourbon and exceptional rye whiskey. The brand name refers to a wild turkey, which is prominently featured on the label, symbolizing its bold and untamed character.
This rye whiskey has an alcohol content of 50.5% ABV (101 Proof), giving it a bold and confident character. Aromatically and taste-wise, it is a prime example of the spicy character of rye whiskey, with a sweet undertone of vanilla and caramel, reminiscent of bourbon. However, the rye and spice notes make it a more distinctive, masculine indulgence.
Enjoy this whiskey with a splash of water or on the rocks. It has received numerous accolades, including double gold at the 2014 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, as well as 91 points from the Beverage Testing Institute in 2011 and from Wine Enthusiast in 2015.
Rye whiskey, the sibling of bourbon, is sometimes overlooked, despite its great potential and authenticity. Unlike bourbon, rye whiskey must have more than half of its mash bill composed of rye, rather than corn. For those interested in exploring this type of American whiskey, the Wild Turkey 101 Proof Rye Whiskey is highly recommended. It is a whiskey that deserves to stand on its own, rather than being overshadowed by the popular 101 Proof Bourbon from Wild Turkey.
