I'm telling you right now, Wild Turkey 101 is a great bourbon. Obviously there are better bourbons out there, but don't sleep on 101. It's no slouch. It's ALWAYS overlooked because of it's price and reputation for exactly what you said!

Additionally, just about everything Wild Turkey Distillery does is fantastic.

A wiseman once said that....

Curious to see how it turned out, both your "bases" are solid pours.

Liked it a little better since it's been open a bit, but still not a big fan.

Just that pick, or the brand in general?

The only other 1792 I have had was the regular Small Batch and I didn't care for it, too light for my palate. So I don't have much experience, but figured the Full Proof would be my best bet since I tend to prefer high proof whiskey.

What are your thoughts on the brand?

Agreed, I wish I had been buying the bourbon for 20 years instead of a few.

I've got 5 different WP single barrels ( one is actually a 2 barrel blend), I'd be happy to have you by for a tasting.

Tagged a EH Taylor Rye, a 4R OESF, and waiting to see about the OF14. Yeah for me. Luck has been fair lately (but soon to end, I smell it).

Unfortunately for my wallet, I too have slipped down the dusty rabbit hole. It's terribly exciting. And expensive LOL!

How awesome!! Are you still going after the 14 then, or does this complete the need?

 

[icehog3]

Grabbed a Larceny A120 and an ECBP A117 for a hundo. Already cracked the EC, but will probably use the Larceny for trade bait.

I've got 9 and now 16. There's 13/14/15 that I would want but not going to lose my mind. Plans to head there this fall. Missed this bottle by 1 day when we were there last year. Not shocked-lol
