With roots going back to 1869, Wild Turkey Bourbon is a super-premium American bourbon, made in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky by Master Distiller Jimmy Russell and his son Eddy Russell. Wild Turkey 81 features high rye content in the mash bill and is aged in casks with a heavy char – the result of which is huge flavour and complexity. It is a marriage of 5-8 years old bourbon and it is longer than any other bourbon in its class.
Unique Selling Points
Production: While the industry standard is 4 years of ageing, Wild Turkey Bourbon 81 is a blend of bourbons aged between 5 to 8 years in “alligator” charred barrels, for maximum flavor. Premium grains are used, with a high percentage of rye in the grain mix. Wild Turkey Bourbon 81 is distilled at a lower proof than competitors are, so less water is added, resulting in a fuller and bolder taste. Wild Turkey Bourbon 81 is for the whiskey lovers, authentic and original. Full of flavour and character.
