Wild Turkey Master's Keep Unforgotten

Wild Turkey Master’s Keep Unforgotten is the eighth release in the company’s annual Master’s Keep limited series. This year’s edition takes inspiration from the 2010 release of Wild Turkey Forgiven, which was a “fortuitous and unexpected co-mingling of young rye and mature bourbon.” While Unforgotten maintains Forgiven’s large age gap between its base bourbon and rye, the latest release ups the age greatly of both base whiskeys. Wild Turkey decided to take Unforgotten a step further and finish the blend in used rye casks. The blending of bourbon and rye was very uncommon in the early 2010s and even in 2022 it still hasn’t become a mainstay practice. Wild Turkey followed up their accidental batch of Forgiven with two subsequal “planned” releases, but since then the company hasn’t produced any additional follow-ups in a similar style.
