Detailed Description
Wild Turkey Bourbon Master’s Keep 17 Year is the oldest Bourbon they’ve ever released… and it happened by accident. Seems they ran out of storage space in the wooden rick-houses at the Wild Turkey Distillery, so a bunch of barrels were moved from the lowland stone warehouse at Old Crow. When space opened up, they moved them back into a metal and wood one.
