Woodford Reserve Batch Proof 2020 Edition. Image courtesy Woodford Reserve.One of the strongest Woodford Reserve releases on record at 123.6 proof, with a nose of oak, caramel, vanilla, honey, and hints of tobacco and leather. The taste is intense and peppery with notes of black pepper, chili powder, and cinnamon that fade slowly to reveal honey, caramel, and brown sugar along with a touch of oak tannins. The finish is long and dry. (April, 2020)
