Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 62.35%

Score: 90 Points

This year’s Batch Proof edition comes in at 124.7 Proof, well above the standard 90.4 proof of the regular Woodford Reserve Bourbon. The nose has notes of toasted caramel, oak tannins, honey, and vanilla. The taste is peppery and intense with notes of cinnamon, black pepper, honey, caramel, and vanilla. Adding some water is recommended, and opens up a touch of cocoa on the palate. The finish is long and dry with lingering spices. (June, 2023)
