At WhiskyD, we don't just provide a collection of bottles, but a handpicked treasury of stories and craftsmanship. One such story is that of the celebrated Wild Turkey Bourbon - a true embodiment of American spirit.
The Wild Turkey Story
Our story begins in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, where Wild Turkey has been distilled since 1855. The brand was named in 1940 when Thomas McCarthy, an executive at Austin, Nichols Distilling Co., brought some warehouse samples on a turkey hunting trip with friends. They loved the whiskey so much they asked him to bring more "wild turkey whiskey" on the next trip, and thus the Wild Turkey brand was born.
A Promise of Quality
Wild Turkey's commitment to quality is unwavering. Their bourbon uses the finest natural ingredients, including premium grain and Kentucky's legendary limestone-filtered water. The mash bill, a secret recipe of corn, rye, and malted barley, is fermented using a proprietary yeast strain that has been carefully preserved for generations. Each bourbon ages gracefully in deeply-charred American oak barrels, absorbing rich color and flavor over the years.
Crafted With Precision
Each step of the process is overseen by father-son Master Distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell, ensuring consistency and quality in every bottle. With a combined experience of over 100 years, their dedication to traditional methods and refusal to compromise has garnered Wild Turkey global recognition and the respect of whiskey connoisseurs worldwide.
Endorsed By The Best
Renowned actor and whiskey enthusiast, Matthew McConaughey, stands as the creative director and ambassador for Wild Turkey, endorsing its rich, bold flavors and the brand's dedication to doing things the right way, not the easy way.
