Woodford Reserve - Batch Proof 123.2 - Master Collection - Bottled in 2019 - 61.60% ABV
Woodford Reserve is a prestigious Bourbon brand originating from Kentucky, produced by the Brown-Forman Corporation, one of the world leaders in premium spirits production. The Woodford Reserve distillery, historically known as the Old Oscar Pepper distillery and later Labrot & Graham, is ideally located near the charming town of Versailles, in the heart of north-central Kentucky, a region renowned for its exceptional terroir and traditional expertise in Bourbon making. This exceptional Bourbon is crafted from a meticulous blend of spirits distilled both in traditional copper pot stills at the Woodford Reserve distillery and in column stills at Brown-Forman’s facilities in Shively, ensuring a unique richness and aromatic complexity. The iconic master distillers Chris Morris, contributing to the house’s excellence since 1976, and Elizabeth McCall, who joined in 2018 with an innovative vision to develop unique editions, oversee the creation of each expression, blending tradition and modernity.
Batch Proof celebrates Woodford Reserve’s exclusive craftsmanship through a unique process: the expertly measured blending of selected barrels to create a harmonious blend, bottled at its natural proof, also called "cask strength," here at a remarkable 123.2 proof. This rare edition faithfully reflects the traditional recipe with a grain bill composed of 72% corn, 18% rye, and 10% malt, following the same artisanal process as Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon, offering an intense and balanced tasting experience, rich in aromas and character.
