For some reason, I've never tried 101 until a few weeks ago and WOW was I immediately impressed. Starting with the pleasant nose full of fruity sweetness and ending with a strong desire to try this amazing Bourbon. This works well both as a "sipper" and also with Old Fashions and Manhattans. Another thing I enjoy is the mouth feel which is slightly syrupy. Lastly, you just can't beat the value. This compares well against $40-$50 bottles and at 101 proof the complex flavors, especially on the finish, are not compromised like some proofed down competitors.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wild Turkey has a sweet & sour profile that pairs perfectly with the bitters along with baking spices. Great neat also. Russels is my favorite to drink neat, but 101 is excellent for the money. Love me some Turkey

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been trying more brands lately,and I always come back to 101.The secondary market is getting a little out of hand.And paying $50+ for a mediocre bottle is getting old.For the price point and taste,101 is my favorite.

I am constantly amazed by the easy drinkability of Wild Turkey 101. Most high proof bourbons, including the popular Bottled in Bond varieties, are challenging to sip neat. The high proof tends to hide the flavor and often requires a bit of dilution with water to bring out the real taste. I have never had this problem with 101! It is smooth and sippable straight out of the bottle and the flavor is exceptional, but it also shines in a cocktail as the high proof helps keep the great taste from being lost.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Spicy. Sweet. Caramel. Vanilla. This is a great bourbon that pairs well with just about anything you can imagine. Don't like the 101 proof? Add a small bit of water or an ice cube. You will not go wrong with this one!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A nice silky mouthfeel. Toffee and butterscotch up front, which is a little prickly and has a long lasting sweetness on the back end. The taste turns a little sour after a few sips, almost like some dark chocolate squares. The copper on the nose is there on the palate too, with lemon sherbet and a big blast of oak. Small hints of macadamia nut, a citrus blast with cinnamon, nutmeg and clove to round it all off. Super long finish on this one. Spice and wood is the remaining flavour here, which makes me go back for more.

Wide Turkey 101 has quickly turned into my favorite daily drinker. It’s smooth and easy drinking. Quality bourbon at a reasonable price and available in Mississippi at most reputable liquor stores. 101 has my number, and if you like bourbon it’ll probably have yours as well.

Sharing how good WT 101 is will likely make it harder for others to enjoy. As a number of other bourbon drinkers will agree, WT 101 is the perfect balance of neat-drinking strength, "oakiness" and smoothness. Fortunately, I've stocked up, and enjoy it more than nearly all other bourbons -- yep!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great flavor, proof great as a mixer, while coke is my favorite, maple old fashion is a close second. Drinking neat or on the rocks it has enough complexity of flavors to make it a pleasing choice. Always constant from bottle to bottle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve enjoyed this bourbon for years, but have only recently discovered how truly excellent it is. With the explosion of new bourbons on the market, I’ve had the opportunity to taste a vast number of them from all across the price spectrum. During that time, I’ve acquired a significant collection of bourbons, among which a bottle of 101 will always be proudly placed. It stands shoulder to shoulder with bourbons multiple times its price point, in my humble opinion.
