Wild Turkey 101 8 Year Old Bourbon 750ml | Kentucky Straight Whiskey, 50.5% ABV
Wild Turkey 101 8 Year Bourbon – The Iconic Export Returns Home
After more than three decades as an Asia-exclusive expression, Wild Turkey 101 8 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey has officially returned to the United States in 2025. Bottled at the legendary 101 proof (50.5% ABV) and now in a full 750ml format, this is the bourbon that built Wild Turkey's global reputation — the same recipe Master Distiller Jimmy Russell stood behind for decades before it disappeared from American shelves in 1992.
Why This Release Matters
This isn't just another age-stated bourbon. The Wild Turkey 101/8 was the brand's flagship expression until it was pulled from the US market and reserved exclusively for export to Japan, Korea, and other Asian markets. Its 2025 stateside return — championed by Jimmy, Eddie, and Bruce Russell — gives American collectors and bourbon drinkers the chance to experience the original 8-year Wild Turkey for the first time in a generation.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Rich vanilla, toasted oak, baking spice, dried cherry, and brown sugar
- Palate: Caramel, butterscotch, black pepper, leather, and a signature high-rye spice
- Finish: Long, warm, and oak-driven with lingering toffee and clove
Specifications
- Distillery: Wild Turkey Distillery, Lawrenceburg, Kentucky
- Master Distillers: Jimmy Russell & Eddie Russell
- Mash Bill: High-rye Kentucky Straight Bourbon
- Age: Minimum 8 years
- Proof: 101 (50.5% ABV)
- Size: 750ml
How to Enjoy
Wild Turkey 101 8 Year is built for neat sipping, but its bold proof and structured oak also make it a standout in classic cocktails — try it in an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, or Boulevardier where lesser bourbons get lost. Pairs beautifully with smoked brisket, dark chocolate, and pecan pie.
