101 Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey 70 cl, 50.5% ABV - Ideal for an Old Fashioned

First time trying. It will now be my go to. As it arrived I cracked it open and poured a tiny bit in a glass. I left it to sit for a few minutes then gave it a good smell. It smelt like a bar of caramel chocolate with fruity notes at the end. I sat smelling it for a good 10 minutes and decided to give it a try. Explosion in the mouth. Sweet caramel flavours hit the tongue, followed by heat that fills the mouth. A nice spicy almost cinamonny flavour afterwards and no burn in the throat whatsoever. It was really early when it arrived and I said to myself I wasn't gonna pour a proper one. The flavour sat for ages inviting me for more. I couldn't resist so poured a double. It recommends using this as a Base for a cocktail or mixing it with coke. I may have 1 with coke but honestly I feel it would be a waste. It's so nice by itself it really should be appreciated straight.

An all rounder and a workhorse in my home bar. Great for cocktails that need a punchy Bourbon that wont get lost in the mix. There's plenty of nice Bourbons out there but I wouldn't go any lower in proof than this for cocktails. Supermarkets usually have it for around £30+ so it's nice to find it on Amazon at £24. It has some bite but is still pretty smooth for a higher proof too and as such goes down just as well on it's own from a Glencairn glass as it does mixed as an ingredient in a cocktail. A versatile bargain Bourbon that in my opinion punches well above it's weight.

Absolutely beautiful bourbon, smooth, sweet and a fantastic kick that lasts a while, puts most of the more expensive ones I've tried to shame, 100% recommend at this price, I'll definitely buy again

101 will always be in my rotations with bourbons, best value for your money and I drink some expensive ones too. If you haven’t tried, then do as you won’t be disappointed. 👍🥃

A real USA..Kentuky Bourbon..amazing flavour..I will buy again..

Hits hard and tastes amazing - it’s got that strong kick at 101 proof but doesn’t feel like you’re choking it down - the smell’s all sweet corn spicy rye with a bit of vanilla and oak - when you sip it you get rich caramel toffee flavors mixed with a nice spicy rye punch and toasted oak vibes - full bodied and smooth enough to drink neat but also holds its own in cocktails - the finish sticks around with some pepper and oak that makes you wanna take another sip right away - its versatile too - perfect straight up - and it won’t break the bank but still tastes like a fancy bourbon.

I recently tried Wild Turkey 101, and it’s fantastic! The bourbon has a bold, rich flavor with hints of caramel and spice that really shine in an Old Fashioned. It’s strong but smooth, and perfect for sipping or mixing. The 70cl bottle is a great size, and it feels like a real classic Kentucky bourbon. Definitely one I’ll be keeping on hand for cocktail nights!

A rich strong flavour and that 'proper' heat you should associate with a good quality Whiskey Its not overly harsh and can be sipped neat [my preference] but is also very pleasant with a good ginger ale Its up there with an aged Knob Creek, but easier on the palette

Melhor bourbon, levando em consideração seu valor que já tomei. Ele é marcante, um pouco picante e presente. Tem um aroma delicioso, cheira a baunilha e folhas secas. Tem menos água em sua composição, o que torna mais forte. Top!!

Fenomentale

Bin von Scotch umgestiegen auf Bourbon. Viele neue Sorten ausprobiert aber bei den Wild Turkey bin ich hängengeblieben. Er ist nun mein neuer Lieblingswhiskey. Er ist sooo lecker , für das Geld der Beste.

Si estás empezando en el mundo del bourbon o si ya tienes varias botellas en tu vitrina pero aún no has probado el Wild Turkey 101, te estás perdiendo una de las mejores lecciones de destilación que existen. ​Lo primero que quiero que compruebes es su graduación: 50,5% de alcohol (101 proof). No dejes que el número te asuste; aquí es donde entra la parte didáctica. Al tener un contenido de agua menor al ser embotellado, este bourbon conserva una intensidad de sabor que otros de 40% pierden por el camino. ​¿Qué vas a encontrar cuando lo sirvas? ​En nariz: Un festín de vainilla y caramelo tostado, pero con un toque picante de centeno muy marcado que lo hace súper interesante. ​En boca: Es robusto. Vas a notar el dulzor del maíz, pero rápidamente aparecen especias como la pimienta y la canela. Es lo que llamamos un bourbon "con carácter". ​El final: Es largo y cálido. Es esa sensación de "abrazo de Kentucky" que buscamos los que apreciamos un buen destilado. ​Mi consejo para que lo disfrutes: Pruébalo primero solo. Si el grado alcohólico te resulta intenso, añade dos o tres gotas de agua. Verás cómo "se abre" el abanico de aromas y aparecen notas cítricas y de roble que estaban escondidas. ​Es, posiblemente, la mejor relación calidad-precio del mercado técnico. Os animo de verdad a que lo comparéis con bourbons que cuestan el doble; os vais a llevar una sorpresa mayúscula. ¡Salud y a disfrutar del aprendizaje

Sehr feines ausgewogenes Produkt einer Geschmack ich nutze es zum mixen und es macht sich dort sehr sehr gut
