Wild Turkey 101 is a bourbon whiskey made in Lawrenceburg Kentucky. It is made at 101 proof locking in all the flavour it receives from tWild turkey 101 is made of water grains and yeast. The water used to make Wild Turkey passes through a natural limestone shelf, which filters out impurities and other components that will give the water a metallic taste and thus giving it to the bourbon as well. The water passes straight by the distillery so they made a well right outside the distillery grounds to take advantage of this fresh water source. It is so pure in fact that even the town of Lawrenceburg located their water plant on the distilleries property to use the pure water.\r\n\r\nThe grains used by wild turkey are rigorously checked for ripeness, purity and humidity. They use corn as the primary grain and most of it is home grown right in Kentucky. They use it because the corn from Lawrenceburg imparts an extremely rich and sweet flavour to the final spirit. The rest of the corn used comes from the Indiana plains and wild Turkeys other grains are also home grown with barley coming from Montana and the rye from North Dakota.\r\n\r\nThe yeast used in the fermentation process is cultivated at the distillery and the formula for it is a closely guarded secret.\r\n\r\nWild turkey is distilled at a low proof to seal in all the flavours, much like slow cooking some meat in a stew. As Wild Turkey is finished there is little added distilled water and as a result the bourbon is of full flavour.he home grown corn, rye and barley with the yeast recipe being kept a family secret for generations.\r\n
