House Review
-
Intro:
Today's review comes from one of the numerous decanters released in the mid 80's from Wild Turkey.
-
Nose:
Rich, moist tobacco. Citrus peel. Vanilla, cream, syrupy cocoa. Really rich.
-
Taste:
Medium/thick mouthfeel, no heat. Rich vanilla, toffee, cream. Burnt sugar. Faint stewed fruits. Lots of cocoa, faint orange peel again.
-
Finish:
Long, rich and sweet. No heat. Faint pepper and really nice stewed fruits notes.
-
Overall:
Wow. Where was this when I did the Gobble series? Probably my favorite Turkey experience to date. Worth it for the lead poisoning.
