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.
Got to admit the Double Oaked on special at $71AU was a bit rich. But WTF that's why we work. First sip, yeah you can taste the Oak. But in the end if me and my mate can't finish a bottle with a smile it's shit.
Was eager to try from reading all the good reviews. Not the best and not the worst but definitely not good enough to buy again.
I dont understand some of the negative reviews. This is a top notch bourbon for a reasonable price. I love the spicy, minty finish.
I have tried all of the bourbons around this price point and below. Without a doubt Woodford Reserve is the best you will find. Incredible value. Straight on the rocks, it is perfect.
I am new to whisk(e)y's. I tried a rye and hated it. I did not know this is a rye whisk(e)y. Purcheses it today as well as LAGAVULIN 16 . I love this rye.
