Wild Turkey Rare Breed is a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey from Wild Turkey. It is bottled at full barrel strength, uncut. It is a blend of 6-, 8- and 12-year-old bourbons, made with a high rye mashbill. It was crafted by Master Distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell.
The nose has caramel, vanilla, orange zest, toasted oak and baking spices. The palate is warm and bold, with toffee, dark fruit, honey, cinnamon and charred oak. The finish is long, spicy and full-bodied, with lingering sweetness and a hint of smoke.
It can be sipped neat, on the rocks, or with a drop of water. It can also be used in cocktails such as an Old Fashioned, a Kentucky Mule or a Manhattan.
