Wild Turkey Forgiven Special Edition Batch 302 First Release 2013

<p><strong>Wild Turkey Forgiven Special Edition – Batch 302 (First Release 2013)</strong><br><br> A rare and highly collectible release from Wild Turkey, <strong>Forgiven</strong> was born from an accidental mingling of straight bourbon and straight rye that tasted so good the distillery “forgave” the mistake and bottled it. Batch 302 from the <strong>2013 first release</strong> delivers the best of both worlds: bourbon’s caramel-vanilla sweetness with rye’s lively spice and citrus lift.<br><br> <strong>Tasting Notes</strong><br> • <strong>Aroma:</strong> Caramel, vanilla bean, orange zest, baking spice and toasted oak.<br> • <strong>Palate:</strong> Brown sugar and toffee up front, followed by rye spice, clove, pepper and a hint of dried cherry and citrus peel.<br> • <strong>Finish:</strong> Medium-long with warming oak, cinnamon, vanilla and lingering rye brightness.<br><br> <strong>Product Details</strong><br> • <strong>Brand:</strong> Wild Turkey<br> • <strong>Expression:</strong> Forgiven Special Edition – Batch 302 (First Release 2013)<br> • <strong>Style:</strong> Small-batch blend of straight bourbon and straight rye whiskey<br> • <strong>Proof / ABV:</strong> 91 Proof / 45.5% ABV (approx.)<br> • <strong>Release:</strong> Limited special edition; early “accidental blend” bottling<br> • <strong>Origin:</strong> Kentucky, USA<br><br> <strong>Why It Stands Out</strong><br> Forgiven became an instant enthusiast favorite for its balance of sweetness and spice and for the story behind it. Batch 302 from 2013 is especially desired by collectors for its early-release character and limited availability.<br><br> <strong>Serving Suggestions</strong><br> Enjoy neat or with a single large ice cube to showcase the bourbon-rye interplay. Exceptional in a refined Old Fashioned: a touch of simple syrup, bitters and an orange twist accentuate the citrus-spice profile.<br><br> <strong>Keywords:</strong> Wild Turkey Forgiven, Wild Turkey Forgiven 2013, Batch 302, Special Edition Wild Turkey, bourbon and rye blend, 91 proof Wild Turkey, collectible Wild Turkey release. </p>
