About
Nestled amid the rolling hills of bluegrass and thoroughbred farms sits our historic Woodford Reserve Distillery. One of Kentucky’s oldest and smallest distilleries, the present day Woodford Reserve Distillery is built on history, sitting on Kentucky’s oldest distilling site where Elijah Pepper began crafting whiskey in 1812. It was on these same hallowed grounds that years later Master Distiller James Christopher Crow perfected his whiskey-making methods, which today have become common practice, including the implementation of sour mash into fermentation. The Distillery is home to a 500-foot-long gravity-fed barrel run, our iconic copper pot stills, and 100-year-old cypress wood fermenters. We also boast one of the only heat cycled barrelhouses in the world, ensuring every drop seeps into the charred and toasted white oak, giving Woodford Reserve its color and signature flavor.
Woodford Reserve Distiller’s Select Bourbon Whiskey is an elegant style of bourbon with bright aromas of citrus peel, star anise, and seared wood. The palate has freshness and picks up more fruit tones of maraschino cherry and milk chocolate. A bit of wood smoke appears on the dry, fresh finish.
Woodford Reserve Distiller’s Select Bourbon Whiskey Rock Glass Gift Set includes a spire cup and a 750ml bottle of Woodford Reserve.
