Woodford Reserve Batch Proof, 62.35%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2023 ● Reviewer: Julia Higgins ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
A real treat on the nose, this brings cherry-dipped vanilla soft serve, Funfetti birthday cake, strawberries and cream, frosted strawberry Pop Tart, and strawberry milk. Red Hots are front and center on the palate, though time and water bring out more red fruit: cherry cough drop, raspberry preserves, and red pepper jelly. Chocolate-covered chiles and a crack of white pepper ensure the heat lingers throughout the lengthy cinnamon-spiced finish.
