Description
"A masterful blend of 13-year-old bourbon and 8- and 9-year-old ryes, finished in rye casks. The idea of marrying the straight bourbon and rye whiskies of Wild Turkey Distilling Co. was born in 2010 when a crew member accidentally mixed a batch of young rye with a barrel of mature bourbon. Over a decade later, Master Distiller Eddie Russell has leveraged his years of distillation experience to craft Master’s Keep Unforgotten, a high proof, extra-aged variation of the harmonious blend of straight bourbon and rye whiskies, this time finished in rye casks for a secondary aging period in the pre-prohibition Rickhouse B – the favorite rickhouse of Eddie’s father, Master Distiller Jimmy Russell.
Tastes of caramel, and sweet oak, complemented by flavors of dried fruit and honey. Fruit-forward aromas with notes of caramel and oak. Black pepper and warm baking spices on the finish." - Distiller Notes
