Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit w/Tag (Pewter Top) 12-16-95 Barrel #05 101 Proof

101 proof. Barrel #05. Dated 12-16-95. Pewter Top. With original tag. Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit — the older of the two Pewter Top Kentucky Spirit expressions in the current Wooden Cork collection, dated December 16, 1995, and including the original hang tag that accompanied the Pewter Top format.

The December 1995 dump date places Barrel #05 over 4 years before the Y2K-era Barrel #03 (3-1-00) also in the collection. The additional presence of the original hang tag is a preservation detail that adds completeness to the presentation — the tag documenting the barrel number, dump date, and other identifying information that makes Kentucky Spirit single barrels fully traceable provenance items.

Together with Barrel #03, Barrel #05 completes a two-expression Pewter Top Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit comparison in the current catalog, spanning December 1995 through March 2000 — 4+ years of the same program's production history under the same Pewter Top packaging format.
