The Wild Turkey Master's Keep Voyage bourbon has been created with some help from Appleton Estate as a premium spirit perfect for discerning sippers to try out this season. The process of creating the spirit started off with Appleton Master Blender Dr. Joy Spence selecting casks used for aging 14-year-old pot still rum that would fit best with the bourbon. The 10-year-old bourbon was then placed inside the casks upon being sent to Wild Turkey Master Distiller Eddie Russell before being bottled at 106-proof.
The Wild Turkey Master's Keep Voyage bourbon is reported to feature flavors of fruit, caramel, aged oak and spices, and is perfect for enjoyment on its own or in a premium cocktail.
