Wild Turkey® 101 is a bold, genuine, and unapologetic American classic, crafted by legendary Master Distiller Jimmy Russell, in the heart of Kentucky. For over 60 years, Wild Turkey has been making the 101- proof bourbon one way — the right way — cutting no corners in the pursuit of the perfect Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

Aged longer than legally required in American white oak barrels with the deepest char, Wild Turkey® 101 has an impossible-to-miss character. Its high rye content and the 101 proof result in a full-bodied flavor with hints of vanilla and orange peel. This Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is highly enjoyable neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail — especially the cocktail that rules them all: the Old Fashioned.

As the name implies, the Old Fashioned is one of the oldest mixed drinks in the cocktail canon — some say the oldest. Ordering one at a bar will likely earn you an approving nod from the barkeep, but it’s also the perfect cocktail for any bourbon lover to master at home. Whether you are entertaining friends or lounging on your couch, its simple ingredients, easy assembly method, and whiskey-forward flavor profile make this the quintessential bourbon cocktail for any occasion.
