Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
켄터키 로렌스버그 절벽 위 와일드 터키는 깊게 그을린 오크와 높은 도수의 진한 버번으로 이름났다. 새 아메리칸 오크에서 8년 보낸 1986년 병입 101 프루프는 짙은 구릿빛이다. 향은 캐러멜과 바닐라, 호밀 향신료가 두드러지고, 50.5도의 한 모금엔 계피와 오렌지, 토피가 풀바디로 입을 채운다. 여운은 오크 탄닌과 향신료가 뜨겁고 길게 타오른다.
AITasting Notes

amber
air Nose
I wouldn’t say you’ve got that old ‘OBE’ kind of thing with bourbon; they either kept very well or are flat dead, but I’m not sure they really ‘evolve’ in glass as much as Scotch whiskies do. This has some cake, touches of cardboard, some meatier coconut too (teriyaki sauce as well?) and whiffs of mushrooms in the woods, as well as some metallic notes (old rusty tin box). The jury’s still out…
restaurant Palate
good, a little earthier than contemporary offerings, with notes of fermented tea, cocoa pods, coffee dregs… In short it’s very dry and perhaps not very sexy. Perhaps for die-hard bourbon specialists only?
timer Finish
medium and dry. A drop of soy sauce and one of mint syrup, then coffee and ‘sucking your Gauloise’. A very French thing, but if I remember well, Wild Turkey used to belong to Pernod until they sold it on to Campari, around 2010
