Frosty Four Wood is the third expression in Woodford Reserve's Distillery Series.The whiskey is initially aged in new, American oak, then finished in maple wood, sherry, and port barrels. The "Frosty" in the name refers to the whiskey's exposure to extremely low temperatures during the 2013 Polar Vortex, which resulted in mineral precipitation. The whiskey is bottled at 90.4-proof whiskey and is sold in 375ml bottles at the distillery and select Kentucky retailers.

Tasting Notes

"Woodford Reserve's experiments with ageing in wine barrels are consistently interesting. The Frosty Four Wood is no exception. The familiar Woodford flavor comes through with plenty of oak and vanilla, but accented with lively fruit notes and tannins. It's a very rich whiskey that runs a little hot, but carries complexity and depth."
