सामग्री

- Wild Turkey 1 oz
विधि
Pour one part Jack Daneils and one part Jim Beam into shot glass then float Wild Turkey on top.
The Shot-gun is a high-proof shot blending Jim Beam bourbon, Jack Daniels Tennessee whiskey, and Wild Turkey bourbon, poured into a shot glass with Wild Turkey floated on top. It is an uncompromising whiskey shot built entirely from American whiskeys of different character, delivering a bold, barrel-forward punch. The combination is designed for those who appreciate the depth and intensity of straight American whiskey.
History & Origins
The Shot-gun is a modern American whiskey shot of disputed origin, likely emerging from bar culture in the American South and Midwest where multiple whiskey brands are considered a point of regional pride. The combination of Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, and Wild Turkey represents three of America's most iconic whiskey brands, and blending them in a single shot reflects a playful one-upmanship common in bar culture. No single creator or establishment is credited.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Intense and complex, combining bourbon's vanilla and caramel notes with Jack Daniels' maple-charcoal character and Wild Turkey's spicy, high-rye profile. Palate: Bold and fiery, with layers of vanilla, oak, caramel, and slight smoke; Wild Turkey's float delivers an additional burst of high-proof intensity. Finish: Long, warm, and drying with persistent oak spice and caramel.
Pro Tip
Chill all components beforehand to slightly blunt the intensity of the high-proof whiskeys and make the shot more approachable.
