    I'm from Cincinnati, and introduced to Wild Turkey around 1971 or 72 after a recording session at Queen City Album company's studios. It became my immediate favorite, not for drinking, picking, grinning, and raising hell, but to relax with family or close friends after a long hard day, especially in the middle of winter. Thanks for jogging my memory.

    Thanks for this one! I just received 4 bottles of Wild Turkey 101 that my grandfather had been sitting on for over 40 years. We opened one on the day we finished cleaning up the house and selling it. The cork broke in the exact same way. Everyone was shocked by how good it was.

    Love seeing father and son like this, that's life goals for me!
    Consider this, though, guys - from the cork breaking we know that the seal was degraded and I would guess that consequently, the fill level dropped from its original mark. What I'm not sure of is what the loss consists of - ethanol and/or water - but I'm 99.9% sure they wouldn't be lost in volumes proportionate to the starting alcohol percentage. So what I'm taking a round-about way of saying is that you can no longer trust the 80-proof statement on that old bottle, if you wanted to know its proof you'd have to measure it yourself. Refractometers are cheap and easy to use and it might just add a bit of interesting info to this series!

    I have an episode suggestion. I would love to see you guys do a video on this!
    What makes a good bourbon to YOU in JUST 2 categories?
    In other words, if you could only choose 2 of the following , which 2 would you choose? I think it would give newbies and also those of us who have been enjoying bourbon for some time some perspective from experienced folks like yourselves. Knowing what two categories are MOST important to you if you could have no other could help others see what makes the most difference in the taste.
    Barrel Proof
    Non Chill filtered
    High Age (8 or 9+ years old)
    Bottled in Bond
    Makeup of Mashbill (high rye, wheater, etc)
    Finishing ( toasted, double oaked, rum barrel , wine finish, stout, etc)
    Thanks and by the way, I love the family affair you guys have going on. It’s goals!

    • @slbdrinks

    Enjoyed it! The brown label was 7 years at one time (carried an age statement and was 86.8 proof). When Pernod removed the age statement and dropped the proof, it essentially became 4-year whiskey. However, 1991 was glut era so there could be older whiskey in it.

    Wild Turkey used to taste more like Russel's Reserve 6. The only thing I use Wild Turkey for now is mixed drinks. If I want to drink their bourbon straight I drink Russel's Reserve 10 or Rare Breed which both taste and mouth feel are awesome.

    Thanks for a really fun show Trenton! I have never seen a Japanese WT import. However, I used to drink Wild Turkey 81 back in high school (MUCH older than the one you have from 1991). I quickly moved on to the 101. As usual, blinds are so much fun. I am almost always fooled in a blind taste test. Now that I think about it, I haven’t had WT 81 in decades! Based on your review, I won’t be trying it again anytime soon. The 101 is just awesome.

    Loved the video. I found it really interesting that at the beginning, Kurt guessed the proof on the current Wild Turkey 81 to be 100 proof. I have always found Wild Turkey products to be “hotter” and more ethanol forward than other bourbons of similar proof.

    Very interesting comparison. The tide seems to be turning towards non-chill filtered globally, but some brands are reserving that for their higher-up selections (which I assume is ironic in that not chill filtering whiskies means LESS work).

So is coopers craft basically ET BIB at $35? I would rather they just stop shuffling juice and just raise the price. I'm tired of chasing bourbon.

    • @slbdrinks
      @slbdrinks  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My thought process is due to the recent bourbon craze distillers have changed or rushed their product to fulfill orders. Used to be a lot of age stated bourbon back in the day. WT 101 used to be an 8 yr stated bourbon. Now they are blending batches etc to try and attain the desired flavors. My theory anyway.

    • @primaltone
      @primaltone 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@slbdrinks That's a good theory. Due to lower demand back then, it must have been way easier to let the Bourbon age longer. We're still fortunate to have so many good selections, but I wonder if the glory days of Bourbon were back then or now...... .

  • @WxGuy08
    @WxGuy08 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So besides the age of the bottles and the proof difference, theoretically the only difference between these bottles is that the vintage bottle is non-chill filtered? It would be really interesting to compare two bourbons that are bottled around the same time at the same proof where one is non-chill filtered and the other one is chill filtered. It would be difficult to do that from an availability standpoint. Maybe if you can get your hands on an exported Rare Breed that is non-chill filtered.

    Hard to beat WT101. Rare Breed is the only thing that comes close imho. I know it isn’t exactly apples to apples for proof, but the taste is wonderful!

    hi i would like to know how you were able to source a bottle from 1991 cause i would like to for my self .That's the year my wife and i got married and id like one for a keep sake . It doesn't have to be Wild Turkey just something from that year .

      Not exactly sure but I think he was able to get it on unicorn auctions. An app you can get for your phone where they auction all sorts of whiskeys.

    Why not do a battle of readily available Bourbons that you can pick up locally for under $50 so a really nice bourbon that won't break the bank.

    • @tim3wade4
      @tim3wade4 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      And as a bonus to that list one bourbon that's under $100 that is much better than the ones that were under 50
