After months... or maybe years of urging to open up his palate to Scotch, Adam finds that he's already had a few successes there. Not all Scotch has to taste like band-aids and campfires.

If you thought Wild Turkey 101 was good, just wait until you try its big sibling!
Adam and Chance are back to wrestle with the legendary Wild Turkey Rare Breed. This barrel-proof bourbon is non-chill filtered and bottled straight from the barrel—meaning it’s the purest, strongest expression of Wild Turkey's classic profile.
