Woodford Reserve Rye
| Nose | Spicy rye and black pepper, with cedar, cinnamon bark and a hint of marzipan, pear and apple |
| Palate | Clove, mint and rye spice, softened by molasses, honey and a touch of malt |
| Finish | Warming and dry, with lingering pepper and a little sweetness |
If you love Woodford Reserve bourbon, this is its spicier sibling. Woodford Reserve Rye is made with a mash bill of 53% rye, enough to give it real rye bite while keeping the smooth, rounded house style.
Like the bourbon, it's distilled at the historic Woodford Reserve Distillery near Versailles, Kentucky, using a mix of copper pot stills and column stills. The pot stills add extra fruit and body, so the spice comes wrapped in honeyed sweetness.
It's a classic rye in the pre-Prohibition style and one of the best cocktail whiskeys you can buy.
Who it's for: Bourbon drinkers ready to explore rye, and anyone who makes Manhattans or Old Fashioneds at home.
How to enjoy it: In a Manhattan or a Sazerac, or neat with a single ice cube.
