Woodford Reserve
Woodford Reserve, located in the heart of horse racing country in Versailles, Kentucky, can trace its history back to 1812, when distilling began on the site. The whiskey drinkers' favorite brand debuted in 1996. In comparison to some sweet bourbons, Woodford Reserve is well-known for its high-rye mash bill, making it an excellent accompaniment to the classic Old Fashioned cocktail or Mint Julep.
While it is made up of 72% corn and 10% malted barley, its expressions get a healthy kick of spice from the 18% inclusion. If you're unfamiliar with the brand, we recommend starting with its classic Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon. One of the market's most complex, flavorful, and reasonably priced whiskeys. Woodford Reserve, on the other hand, is serving up some serious A-grade fare, namely the Master Collection. We were fortunate enough to obtain the 2021 edition, which was limited to only 700 bottles available nationwide. The 15th edition of the Master's Collection, which was created to honor the creations of the 1812 distillery site where Woodford Reserve is now located, was released. Furthermore, if you're willing to pay a little more, the Double Oaked release adds a touch of luxury.
But if you really want a taste of Woodford Reserve's top drop, the Woodford Reserve Baccarat Edition is unrivaled. This distinctive Kentucky bourbon is finished in XO Cognac oak, housed in a striking Baccarat crystal glass decanter, and available for a cheeky AUD$3,000.
