By now, many of you have seen photos of NCF Rare Breed 116.8 on social media. This Wild Turkey travel-retail exclusive has made its way to online retailers, most notably Must Have Malts, and surely secondary whiskey markets as well. But the question remains – is NCF Rare Breed worth the chase? I hope to answer question that today. An interesting side note: Wild Turkey is now using only non-GMO grains (corn, rye, barley) in its mash bills. I have not seen any distillery mention this before, so I’m not sure if they’re alone or not. GMO corn makes up a gigantic proportion of the non-organic (conventional) corn market, so it’s actually kind of impressive that Wild Turkey is able to source enough of it despite their size. Kudos. Palate: Once again, I’m surprised to find a good amount of herbal notes within. Not that it’s weird for rye whiskey to have herbal notes, but I was expecting more caramel and vanilla due to the high corn content of the mash bill.

That way, distilleries don’t have to employ former NASA engineers and could cut costs by hiring the same engineers that designed the Ford 6.0L diesel. The third method may be that Wild Turkey combines multiple barrels together into one barrel after maturation is complete. Then they test the total proof and add water into the barrel as needed to lower it down to 112.2.

The oak notes are extremely rich and are accompanied with conditioned leather and a light-bodied cigar wrapper. Fruits are sweet and concentrated, like they were dehydrated. I can find flavors of dried figs, cherries and prunes. Have you had the Wild Turkey Rare Breed? If so add your own thoughts in the comments below.
