Wild Turkey Cheesy Gold Foil 12 Year 1991 Bottling

First released in 1985, this is a 1991 bottling of Wild Turkey's highly sought after cheesy gold foil edition. This 12 year old bourbon is bottled at their signature 101 proof and lasted until 1992 when it was changed to a split label. Older editions of Wild Turkey are particularly sought after amongst enthusiasts, notably for their remarkably different taste profile to modern Wild Turkey bottles. The distillery originally produced bourbon using cypress wood tanks but these were slowly phased out from 1984 until 1990. The other notable production change came in 2004 when the barrel entry proof was changed to 110, up from 107. The combination of these changes have resulted in serious demand for older vintage bottlings from the much loved distillery, with some believing 1990s era bottlings to be the distillery’s best ever.
