Wild Turkey

Well I seem to be on a Wild Turkey run. No, not the moonshine that in 1940 whiskey distillery executive Thomas McCarthy took samples of on a wild turkey hunting trip. In 1941, the next year, his friends asked him for "some of that wild turkey whiskey", and the brand name was born. My current Wild Turkey run is one that brings to mind one of the Founding Fathers of America who said of the wild turkey compared to the bald eagle “For in Truth the Turkey is in Comparison a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America”...
