Wild Turkey American Honey Sting
(0.75l, 35.5%)
The Mother of All Whiskey Bombs.
Okay, let's get this straight right away: honey-flavored Whiskeys are like that particular summer hit pop song that you hear fourteen times a day and hate it. That being said, there's a way to turn this boring and wearisome trend into something fun and invigorating again. Meet ghost pepper, one of the hottest chilies known to mankind.
Wild Turkey took this ungodly fire-packed fruit and used it to literally spice up their smooth blend of Liqueur, pure honey and Wild Turkey Bourbon. Put on some boxing gloves, because this red devil will first punch you with its 71 Proof and then test your limits with aforementioned military-grade chili. But the Sting is a loving fella deep inside, because this bottle will follow with an unmistakable smoothness and amazing flavors. Don't let our hyperbole scare you away, though. This blend from the Fantasyland is far from begin an apocalyptic gimmick - in fact, it's a well-oiled and sweet delicacy, but with a fun built-in game that will make you wonder whether the next sip means a lovely honey hug or a fiery punch of a chili.

Ratings & Reviews
guest,
Really sweet but that is tempered by the strong pepper. Good for people new to Bourbon and sipping from a flask while camping.
Eric,
Not one to put in front of some other bottles on the bar, but has a really great taste. Especially if you like spicy flavors. Don’t let the “Infused with Ghost Peppers” scare you away. One sip will have the honey, then the next will be pepper. Not enough to masked you run for the milk. It’s a fun cheap bottle for drinking with the boys.
Michael,
Smooth, sweet
Todd,
I prefer the regular Wild Turkey American Honey to this one. The spice definitely keeps this one from being sickly-sweet, which can be an issue for the undiluted regular flavor, but I found the amount of spice a little too sharp and distracting to make this a favorite.
guest,
This is honey whiskey. Very smooth. However, it lacks bite. I like the Evan Williams version better for that. Evan Williams is more whiskey with honey, and this is honey whiskey. Still a good sipper after work.
