Evidence Summary
Independent review confirms the ongoing 104-proof, no-age-statement straight rye, Wild Turkey production, and 51/37/12 rye mash bill.
Flavor Observations
One reviewed barrel showed gingerbread, hay, caramel, rye grain, kettle corn, lemon, creamy texture, oak, cherry, and rye spice. Single-barrel variation remains a caveat.
