Seven years of maturation meet bold proof in this Shortbarrel Wild Turkey barrel pick, a spicy, oak-forward bourbon with concentrated character.
Description
This single-barrel, cask-strength pick emphasizes deep caramel and seasoned oak with a peppery backbone that carries through each sip. The age brings structure while the proof preserves intensity and vibrancy.
It balances youthful zip and mature wood influence, making it expressive both neat and with a splash of water.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Bold caramel and toasted oak with bright spice and a hint of pepper.
- Palate: Rich caramel, robust oak, and assertive baking spice; pepper threads through the mid-palate.
- Finish: Long and warming, finishing on oak tannin and lingering spice.
Why This Bottle Stands Out
The combination of age, single-barrel selection, and cask-strength proof gives this Wild Turkey pick a concentrated profile and collectible appeal—an unapologetically bold bourbon.
Perfect For
- Savoring neat for intense flavor delivery
- Sharing at tasting nights with other barrel picks
- Mixing into spirit-forward cocktails that can handle higher proof
