Crafted in small batches, Woodford Reserve Bourbon Whiskey is an artisanal drink full of flavour. It has a distinct taste and clean finish, making it a favourite among whiskey lovers. The honey amber appearance is clean and brilliant, while the nose is heavy with rich dried fruit, hints of mint, and oranges covered in cocoa. A faint vanilla and tobacco spice adds to the complexity of the aroma.
On the palate, the whiskey is rich, chewy, rounded, and smooth, with complex citrus, cinnamon, and cocoa flavours. Toffee, caramel, chocolate, and spice notes are also present. The finish is smooth, almost creamy at first, with a long, warm, and satisfying tail.
Woodford Reserve Bourbon Whiskey has won numerous awards and is a favourite among bartenders worldwide. It is a key ingredient in the Old Fashioned cocktail, served in nine out of ten of the world's best cocktail bars, according to Diffords Guide. To make the perfect Woodford Reserve Old Fashioned, add 50ml of the whiskey, 10ml of sugar syrup, and two dashes of bitters to a mixing glass. Stir the ingredients with ice for 30-40 seconds, then strain into a glass filled with ice. Finally, garnish with an orange peel.
