The story behind it

The maker

Wild Turkey was founded in 1940 after distillery executive Thomas McCarthy brought some warehouse samples on a wild turkey hunting trip with friends. The brand's legacy is defined by legendary Master Distiller Jimmy Russell, who has been crafting this classic Kentucky spirit since 1954 alongside his son Eddie.

How it is made

Distilled at the Wild Turkey Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, using water filtered by local limestone. This bourbon is aged in deep No. 4 alligator char American white oak barrels to extract maximum flavor and color.
