The mashbill for Woodford Reserve features a high percentage of rye: 72% corn, 18% rye and 10% malt. The whiskey is also unusual for being triple distilled and having the lowest proof upon entering the barrel where it matures for at least six years. A must have Kentucky bourbon. Makes a wonderful Old-Fashioned cocktail!
Quite thick and creamy. There are notes of honey and spice, leather, a touch of cocoa, a little smoke, toasty oak and vanilla cream with a hint of butterscotch.
Thick and full. There are notes of espresso beans, winter spice, cereal sweetness, plenty of rye, ground ginger, almond oil, toasty oak and a little rum.
Long and mature with notes of cereals and toasty oaken spice.
As a recent convert... I was always an Islay drinker. I think it's lovely. Creamy smooth lots of butterscotch and some floral notes punctuated by a nice alcohol wallop. Delicious!
This bourbon whiskey straight is delicious. So far it's my favorite.
How anyone can give this below 5 star baffles me. It's an excellent bourbon and at a very reasonable price too. I love it.
I am a single malt man, however, I have experienced my share of whiskys being an infantry veteran and this bourbon is by far one of the best I've had the pleasure of sipping. The only one I found better is Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Woodford products are my kind of bourbon. 9/10
Love good booze... superior sipping wiskey. Replaces Knob Hill for me... easier may be slightly less burn... that 10% makes a difference.
