Wild Turkey 12 Year Old 101 Proof Distillers Reserve Bourbon

*bottle only, no box*

Wild Turkey 12 Year Old 101 Proof Distiller's Reserve is a long-matured Kentucky Straight Bourbon from Jimmy and Eddie Russell — selected from the distiller's reserve, barreled at a lower entry proof and matured for 12 years before bottling at 101 proof.

This is a pre-modern era Wild Turkey 12 Year expression at the full 101 proof, drawing on the distillery's high-rye mashbill and the deep char maturation that defines the house style. The extended age develops a rich, layered profile while the 101 proof keeps the Wild Turkey backbone intact.
