Distillery Tasting Notes

Made by Brown-Forman Distillery Inc ~ Woodford Reserve Distillery

APPEARANCE Burnished gold NOSE Softly sweet with delicate notes of anise, cedar and a subtle cassia bark note mingle with an overripe apple fruitiness. A malty shortbread note dusted with brown sugar and glazed with caramel combine to suggest a slice of Dutch apple pie. TASTE Soft and sweet with hints of malt sharpened with a spice medley and cedar. FINISH Subtle spice, oak and fruit notes gently fade in a warm farewell.
