Wild Turkey, American bourbon brand, has announced the release of its annual limited-edition Master’s Keep Voyage.
Crafted by master distiller Eddie Russell in a first time collaboration with Dr. Joy Spence, the expression is bottled at 106 proof and matured in Jamaican rum casks, marking the first rum cask finish in the history of Wild Turkey.
The 10-year-old is the latest in the Master’s Keep series, which first launched in 2015, with the intention of pushing boundaries in the traditions of bourbon-making.
Commenting on the release, Russell said: "Every year, we look forward to the release of Master's Keep as an opportunity to rethink what our bourbon can be. Creating Master's Keep Voyage in collaboration with Dr. Joy Spence was a real privilege, and I think our shared passion for telling a story through our spirits comes through in this one-of-a-kind whiskey."
Spence added: "With Voyage, we set out to develop a spirit that allows the notes of the rum and bourbon to work in harmony. By aging Eddie's hand-selected batch of 10-year-old bourbon in the finest casks we have at Appleton Estate, we were able to achieve a new level of flavour that gives whiskey and bourbon lovers a new way to enjoy their favourite drinks."
Master’s Keep Voyage will be available nationally at select retailers beginning in July, at an SRP of $275 for a 750ml bottle.
