Bourbon whiskey must be made from at least 51% corn but can include

a Rye whiskey.

Oh, and you were doing so good. Oh well, 3 outta 4 ain't bad.
Wild Turkey Rye ...green neck seal.

Don't recall ever seeing Wild Turkey Rye back when I occasionally
took a nip of whiskey now and then. As I mentioned, I'm no expert
on whiskey, as my wife discourages it. I remember when her father
(who also was known to take a nip or few of whiskey now and then)
died many years ago, my brother-in-law and I thought it appropriate
to buy a flask of Wild Turkey and tuck it into in his jacket before
they closed the lid and buried him. Years later, I mentioned this
to one of his relatives. He said except for our choice of whiskey,
it was a nice gesture. Apparently Joe didn't like Bourbon much
and preferred Canadian whiskey, which I think is mostly made from
rye...but then what do I know. :-)
