The 80 proof we sampled is considered the lowest of the Wild Turkey line – perhaps for good reason. Wild Turkey began as whiskey brought along on a hunting trip for some wild turkeys and has since grown into a well known popular icon in movies and music (of course eclipsed by it’s Tennessee cousin Jack Daniels) However when most people think of this whiskey they think of it’s older brother the Wild Turkey 101 Proof which not only known for having more booze also contains a much different and in my mind better taste. However as standard procedure our metrics and personal scores (honesty excluded) are based on how well Wild Turkey rates against other bourbons we’ve sampled with 5 being an average score. Bourbon is not meant to be shot and much like the scotch we reviewed was taken on the rocks. Now while our normal format dictates that our four reviewers (DJ Lvl, BuffaloJern, Justice, and William Henri Neve the IV) partake in a shot of the intended liquor followed by a variety of mixed drinks. As such this week we review a bourbon whiskey, with a turkey on it. However that’s just a bit too classy, and while class is expected at The Buffalo Lounge it’s second only to manliness. Now soon enough (Read: 2 months – actually half a year) DJ Lvl will post an exciting special edition where we review not only a wine we gathered from my basement, but some short reviews of a wine tasting we attended. We’re back! Yes after a very drunken and plaque riddled holiday Honest Booze Reviews is back at it’s scheduled time.
