Woodford Res Masters Collection No. 18 Historic Barrel Entry 700ml
Only
$185.00
Commercial Description
In the 1830?s our Woodford County distillery was the setting for a series of discoveries and innovative practices that today define the bourbon industry. For this 2022 Master?s Collection release Master Distiller Chris Morris and Assistant Master Distiller, Elizabeth McCall have drawn upon that rich history and their own interests for inspiration.
This 2022 Master?s Collection was made with newly-distilled whiskey that went into the barrel at 100 proof. The barrel entry proof of ?new make? plays an important role in the maturation process, and the standard for barrel entry proof has changed over the past two centuries. The result is this Historic Barrel Entry, a rich and darkly robust expression of Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
NOSE - An alluring medley of vanilla bean and dried apple dusted with nutmeg, clove, and cinnamon with a hint of cocoa. Roasted coffee and hazelnut soften into notes of dark cherry and plum muddled with spearmint.
TASTE - Rich toasted oak is tempered by overripe banana and a medley of cooked berry fruits. Hints of leather, coffee, and baking spice trail into minty dark chocolate.
FINISH - A lingering finish of charred oak, leather, and orange oil.
Alc 45.2%
