Woodford Reserve Master's Collection Batch Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Woodford Reserve Master’s Collection Batch Proof is a new way to tell the story of the five flavor sources – water, grain, fermentation, distillation, and maturation – which are behind each expression of this bourbon. For Batch Proof, it is crafted using the same grain bill and process as the regular bourbon but is then drawn from a select batch of barrels in a more raw, uncut form before being bottled at a much more hearty 125.8 proof.

Nose: A complex medley of wood spice notes, including smoked cedar, dark chocolate, pineal, and vanilla, is balanced with hints of orange zest, grilled pineapple, and cherry fruit. It is sweetened with a trace of marzipan, peppermint, and malt.

Taste: Dark chocolate drizzled with toasted almonds, hazelnuts, and malty shortbread spiced with hints of leather, cedar, and nutmeg.

Finish: Rich aged leather spice and dark chocolate produce a crisp, dry finish.
