Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Bourbon

There’s not a lot that is obviously unique with this bourbon. Its flavor profile has few surprises and follows the bold, rye-forward Wild Turkey style. What makes the bourbon special is its balance of the flavor spectrum. The corn flavor is offset by the rye spiciness. The sweetness is offset by oak and leather flavors. Although this is most likely the goal of any master distiller, few really nail this delicate balance. There are many bourbons that have a particular aspect of their flavor profile that makes them great, but a bourbon that provides a deep and layered flavor experience is much harder to find.
