Made in the traditional style of Kentucky Rye’s, Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey delivers bold flavours of pepper and tobacco with a long fruit and sweetly spiced finish.
Tasting note: Bright polished copper-penny colour. Linseed oil gives way to pine needle, peppermint and sawn oak on the nose. Very low-key rye. Sedate on entry with delicate dried coconut and supporting apply rye accents on the finish. Medium long with subtle mint refreshing the aftertaste. Highly accessible. Should appeal to Bourbon drinkers more so than hardcore rye devotees. 45.2% Alc./Vol.
