Bottled at 101 proof (50.5% ABV), it carries the hallmark Wild Turkey strength while delivering layers of refined flavour.   This one was bottled in 2012, which makes it an older release from the Russell era when single barrel bourbon at this proof point was still fairly uncommon on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery bottle comes from one individual barrel, so no two are exactly the same.
