Woodford Reserve Master's Collection.
This year's expression marks the 15th release of the Master's Collection, which was created to honor the many discoveries and innovations that occurred at the 1812 distillery site where Woodford Reserve is now located.
The bourbon includes liquid from barrels that are 17 years old and date to 2003, the year Chris Morris was named Master Distiller.
Nose: Layers of rich oak, sweet aromatic notes, caramel, brown sugar, chocolate, and vanilla merge into a cured tobacco character brightened with apple fruit
Taste: Very old oak notes sweetened with honey balanced by a touch of citrus, apple peel, and a touch of clove spice
Finish: A long finish of raisin fruit and malty sweetness
