Wild Turkey 8 yo 101 proof

"The famous name on this bottle comes from a group of wild turkey hunters, one of whom brought a special 101 proof barrel-aged bourbon on their annual hunting trip. In later years they always requested 'that Wild Turkey bourbon' and to this day it is still hand-crafted in the same slow traditional way."

This bourbon is very much enjoyable in an Old Fashioned cocktail:

• 4 cL whisky (Wild Turkey)
• 1/2 cL sugar syrup
• 2 healthy dashes of Angostura bitters
• Orange peel

Pour the first three ingredients over fresh ice in an old fashioned glass. Stir a little to blend all ingredients together. Take a big fat orange peel and squeeze the oil out of it and throw it into the glass.

50.5% ABV. Read more on Wild Turkey website.

Woodford Reserve Distiller's Select

"The art of making fine bourbon whiskey has taken place on the site of The Woodford Reserve Distillery, a National Historic Landmark, since 1812. We honor this heritage with a truly unique batch bourbon of unparalleled quality - Woodford Reserve."
"The barrels that are used for this exceptional hand-crafted bourbon have been specially selected by our Master Distiller."

This is a very fine bourbon. I made an incredibly tasteful cocktail with it:

1 part bourbon (Woodford Reserve)
1 part liqueur Bénédictine
1 part St Germain Elderflower liqueur
1 part lemon juice
Shake all ingredients on ice. Strain in a cocktail glass.

It's very easy to do since all ingredients are in same proportion.

43.2% ABV. Read more on Woodford Reserve website.
