Distilled circa 1976. Bottled 1988. Wild Turkey 12 Year Old Gold Foil — the second-oldest vintage in the Wooden Cork Wild Turkey Gold Foil collection, three years newer than the 1985 and from the same iconic 1980s production era.
The 1988 Gold Foil represents Wild Turkey 12 Year at the height of its pre-revival era — bourbon before the modern craft and allocated premium era, when Wild Turkey's consistent 101-proof production was the standard for quality American bourbon without the cultural stratification that followed. Now nearly 40 years from original bottling.
