Crafted with conviction by our Master Distillers, Wild Turkey Bourbon is aged longer to deliver more character – and to give it that Wild Turkey signature kick, Eddie and Jimmy Russell use the classic Wild Turkey high-rye mash bill before it ages in the deepest level #4 alligator char American oak barrels. Wild Turkey shines on its own, or in a mixed drink like a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned. Thats why Eddie calls it a whiskey that can stand up to any mixer or in any cocktail with the bold, in-yourface taste that is distinctively Wild Turkey. We distill at a lower proof, so less water is added, resulting in a fuller and more robust bourbon flavor just way the Russells have been making it for over 60 years.
