Is Wild Turkey on the Chopping Block?

The brand suffering is a concern I have. Wild Turkey, in my opinion has let 101 slip about as far as they dare. Or at least as far as I care to have it slip. Releases like Kentucky Legend are only ever one off bottlings. RR101 was replaced with what I think is an inferior product at a lower proof. I haven't bought a bottle for a couple years but I have heard other posters exclaim that WTKS has tasted a bit young as of late. I was hoping the trend would be reversed at some point. I was hoping WT would release some age stated 8, 10 or 12 year stuff to the domestic market, at least on an annual basis like BT does with the Antique Collection.

Got some new information. I was talking to a guy at Vendome the other day and he said they are contracted to build the stills for their new addition. I asked him if that meant the expansion was going forward after the sale is final and he said that was considered to be part of the purchase.

Thought you all would like to know.
