Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye Reviews
Stodgy and ultimately forgettable. Fast food whiskey.
N: Bread, phenolic heavy sweet.
P: Surprising aromatic, manageable spice that mangles within a tumult of sweet and spice. Heavy, as in fast food.
A: Wood spice…zzz.

Wonderful whiskey for the long and cold winter evenings
Amazing. I love all of Woodford whiskeys, they've never disappointed me neither my friends.
Also I would like to express my appreciation for an amazing Customers Service Team at Master of Malt.

Great drop, better than a lot of similar priced offerings.
Raisins, cherry and vanilla on the nose. As some have said a weaker feel on the front mouth, but this turns into a beautiful honey finish in the back of the throat. Surprising alcohol content (45.2) for something this smooth. Drinking a litre bottle from batch 6.
4.5 stars.

Wrong price bracket
For what it is it’s too expensive, it tastes too young and unbalanced. It could have spent a little more time to meld the flavours together, it all a bit separate.

Lacks depth and quality; overpriced
A distinctly ordinary rye, and in my opinion way overpriced for the quality. As the reviewer below mentions, this whiskey lacks flavour and depth.
The nose is its only slight saving grace, promising at least some complexity: as well as the usual earthy, spicy rye notes, there are undercurrents of cherry cola, vanilla toffee, ripe pears and heather honey.
This promise upfront fails spectacularly on delivery however, with a thin, watery mouthfeel and a one dimensional, dull flavour profile. The relatively low-key rye spice on the initial palate develops into weak and slightly bitter dandelion and burdock (root beer) notes.
After a reasonably satisfying spicy rye swallow, the finish dies spectacularly. A slight oaky sweetness lingers, but I’d hardly call it a finish, more of an aftertaste.
Given the reputation of some of Woodford’s bourbons, in my opinion, this is a really poor effort for them.

Poor flavour for the money
Really disappointing, very watery start that breaks into a uninspiring burnt toffee bourbonish flavour, nice peppery finish you'd expect from a rye though. A long way off being a top rye for me.

It is a wonderful whiskey.
Wonderful nose with spicy notes. In the palate it is peppery and dry with oaky nuances. It is great to know no caramel added as it is a straight rye whiskey . It has wonderful natural color directly coming from the barrel. It is a perfect example how good a rye whiskey could be.

Yum
Nice stuff. Notes of caramel and spices. Similar to Mitcher's but Pikesville is better

Don't give up, give it time
I can keep my nose out of the glass! What a wonderful nose, honey and caramel are quite prevalent.
The first sip is a bit confusing as this rye is quite muted. Don't let this put you off, pour a large glass and let your senses acclimatize. I really enjoy this offering, a good bottle for a decent price.
