The 86.8 is a traditional bourbon, handcrafted with old-fashioned methods, using the finest natural ingredients, including at least 51% corn, along with barley and rye. Jimmy Russell states that 86.8 is an unpretentious, yet finely crafted bourbon. Its ideal on the rocks in a smoky bar, and perfect for those who enjoy bourbon with a mixer. Wild Turkey 86.8 has a deep, but soft aroma with classic bourbon characteristics of sweetness and corn. The excellent bourbon taste balances traditional caramel and vanilla flavors.
