Informations: This bottling of an 8-year-old Wild Turkey Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was produced after 1985, but probably in the 1990s.

Distillery: Wild Turkey: The Wild Turkey distillery was opened in 1855 by John Ripy as the Ripy Distillery in Lawrenceburg Kentucky. It was closed during Prohibition, but production resumed in 1933. The name Wild Turkey was initiated in 1940 by a manager of the distillery (Thomas McCarthy) through a turkey hunt. Today, the company belongs to the Campari Group.
Country: USA: Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.

The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.

Condition: Please look very carefully at all the pictures, especially the labels and pack, and satisfy yourself as to their condition before bidding.
