    Rare Breed was my first higher-ish proof bourbons, and it is still one of my all time favorites. Easily worth the $48 dollars in my area

      Just recently picked up rare breed for 40 bucks at a random Walmart in my area which is Des Moines Iowa and aint got much left, it is as good as people say, now its a tough choice, Do I go with a 36 dollar handle of 101 or spend the extra 4 for a 750 of rare breed?

    WT101 is so much bang for the buck, and rare breed is the cheat code for great top shelf whiskey

    I love Wild Turkey products! The WT 101 is my go-to daily sipper. I really like the Rare Breed, followed by Russell's 10 yr old. I rarely buy Russell's single barrel as I feel it drinks hotter than the higher proof Rare Breed. I don't think I've ever bought a bottle of Kentucky Spirit, but I have tasted it at the distillery. Single barrel bourbons are subjective regarding their flavor, enjoyability and consistency, so I don't drink those regularly. Great review!

    Great video. Love Wild Turkey. My rankings: 1) Rare Breed, 2) Russell’s Single Barrel, 3) 101, 4) Russell’s 10, 5) Kentucky Spirit. Never liked the Kentucky Spirit - it just tastes off and is overpriced. Rare Breed is the best value in bourbon followed closely by 101.

    Both of the single barrel offerings can vary greatly. Really depends on the barrels you got in this blind.

  • @kirklandeche937
    @kirklandeche937 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Many people don't know this but, before the turn of the century, Rare Breed had a proof point of 108 while the Kentucky Spirit was at 104. In as far as the Russell's Single Barrel, I really love the deep rich flavor that just goes on for an eternity but, the Rare Breed is an outstanding bottle that's virtually available anywhere, anytime! Great show! Cheers!

    • @frankd.506
      @frankd.506 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I remember that now I've been a fan of the Wild Turkey family for many years and I always thought the Rare Breed was 108 , I' always loved RB no matter but I was not crazy about Spirit as of late and now you've got me wondering because years ago I was crazy about Spirit , considering you know your WT products I wonder if you ever had their Tradition offering which I was lucky enough to get two one I gave to my father,I remember it as being one of the best pours I've ever had.🥃✌️

    Really enjoyed this video. I am a big Wild Turkey fan. I use 101 as a mixer, Rare Bread as daily drinker and Russels SB as a weekend pour.

  • @davidwoods358
    @davidwoods358 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    101 is $19.99 in my area. It's a great price for a quality sipper without breaking the bank. 101 always seems to punch above its price point in everyone's taste tests ... and I agree.

    • @bs8246

    @johncannon3593 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Russel's Single Barrel, especially the store picks, are probably my #1 bourbon, period. Rare Breed is close. Both are top 5 of all bourbons for me. Other favorites in that top 5 are Four Roses SB (and the barrel proof version as well), Weller Full Proof, and 1792 12-year.

    I want to love Russell’s 10 - but the low proof hurts it. My go to everyday sipper is 101 and I love me some Rare Breed…both are currently on the shelf. WT is my favorite distillery overall - the Russell’s just know how to make great bourbon. PERIOD!

  • @SPAMsammiches

    I'm enjoying Wild Turkey 101 Rye as I write. I've had Russell's 10 and was impressed.... but that said I'm not experienced with Bourbon though I like Old Forester 1910 and Woodford Bouble Bourbon..

  • @twentyfiveyears5010
    @twentyfiveyears5010 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think the 10-year's last place finish highlights that age isn't everything. Sometimes we get too hung up on age, when it is only one ingredient or factor in the overall experience. I bought a 10-yr recently but I find I am not reaching for it, going for 101 and RR SiB instead.
    That's why I'm not too bothered by ECBP eliminating their 12-year age statement. I have had some 9-yr ECBP picks that were phenomenal. It all comes down to, "Find a bottle you love."

  • @Glock2201
    @Glock2201 ปีที่แล้ว

    I might have to visit the WT101 again. So many people like it so much and the bottle I had I found to be so-so at best. I have only had 3 of these and I would put them in the order of RR10, RB, and WT101 and it is not even a close call.

    Im a big Wild Turkey fan and I do have each of those bottles except for the Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit Single Barrel and the Rare Breed is by far my favorite. The one thing with the W/T line-up is that they all except for the 101 keep going up in price the rare breed has gone up $4 ($48-$52) I actually went to buy a bottle of Rare Breed and when I saw the increase in price and noticed the good old trusty 101 was still the same price it's been forever I bought the 101 out of spite or anger whatever you want to call it? I dont dink bourbon neat and they all taste good in an old fashioned, or if you let it sit for a while with a 2" ice cube! 🥃Cheers!

    • @AvaRose00
      @AvaRose00 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The 101 is great. I bought a bottle of Eagles Rare for $50 and it’s doesn’t taste never as good. WT is so much sweeter. I think that all the high price bourbon is just bullshit just like the media. 😎

  • @geland1
    @geland1 ปีที่แล้ว

    If Wild Turkey upped the proof on Russell’s 10yr to 100 or 101, it would destroy Eagle Rare. I always wondered why they would put out a product with almost the same specs on paper (10yr @ 90proof), why not go above & beyond?

  • @MDillonL91

  • @drgallup
    @drgallup ปีที่แล้ว

    Rare Breed and RR SiB are head and shoulders above the rest. SiB is just luck of the draw if it's better than Rare Breed or not. Kentucky Spirit used to be in the running when it had the pretty bottle, they should never have killed that. Now I see no reason to buy it. 101 is such a bargain, I always have it around.
    Heading to Canada next week. Buffalo duty free has Rare Breed for $30!!!!!!!!! You know what I'm buying.
