People gradually get used to them and the hype dies down. I bet sales numbers are good for the first year or so because everyone wants to try them. Wild Turkey Rare Breed brings a fresh and tasty twist to the Wild Turkey range. Its unique flavor comes from a special mash bill mix giving it an edge in the rye whiskey market.

The palate reveals initial rye flavors alongside notes of caramel, leather, and orange. The sweetness and spice are well-balanced, with the spice intensifying as you chew. There is also a hint of pleasant tobacco flavor, adding depth and complexity. Inspector’s Score If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, such decision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Finish: Moderately long finish (but wishing it was longer), I continue to get more dry oak notes. They don’t become too dominant though as root beer flavors remain along with the telltale Turkey nuttiness, a sprinkling of citrus zest and cinnamon. Score: 7.6/10 For individuals seeking alternatives within this price range, I would personally recommend considering Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel, which offers comparable qualities. Inspector’s ScoreExcerpt: Dry oak and spice come out on the finish with pine, mint, and the lingering rich sweetness of vanilla in myriad forms, think: vanilla frosting, pudding, and pound cake. Okay, enough exposition! Let’s get down to tasting. I sampled this neat in a glencairn. This is a 2021 bottling for the record. Rarebird101 claims that he’s detected slight differences across different yearly batches, but just know this is what I’m working with today. Tasting Notes This is the latest batched iteration of Wild Turkeys Rare Breed. Based on how long WT RB 03 was around, who knows how long we can expect to this on the market also. The proof is no doubt the result of the batching, and while we can believe this is a single batch, it's easy to hit specific proofs in batches this large, which is almost certainly the case and why this release will be around for a long time.

Excerpt: Water opens it up to more nuanced fruit, spice, and sweetness. Without water, brown-sugar butter dominates about mid-palate and leads to a long finish.Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. Blending: After aging, the whiskey is then blended together in small batches to create the final product. This blending process helps to ensure that each bottle of Wild Turkey Rare Breed Rye has a consistent flavor and aroma profile. So, that’s Lou. He’s come a long way. Over the past year and a half, I’ve managed to instil in him appreciation for slowing things down, being able to read a bottle label, understanding how whiskies are distilled and the differences between all types available.
