Batch Proof 2018
Woodford Reserve’s Master’s Collection honors the pioneering men who birthed the iconic whiskey brand: Oscar Pepper and James Crow. Introduced in 2006, these annual releases are coveted by collectors and consistently delight aficionados. The latest expression, Batch Proof, is made using the same grain bill and process as standard Woodford Reserve. Bottled at 125.8 proof, though, it delivers a solid kick to the keister. Woodford’s trademark vanilla and toasted oak flavors are dominant, accentuated with milder notes of shortbread, cedar, and almonds in the mid-palate. Leather and bitter chocolate highlight a dry finish. ($130)
