I enjoy the Woodford Reserve line of products. I love barrel proof or batch proof bourbons. I understand there is an art to blending bourbons but give me the true product and let me change it. The batch proof is at 123.2 proof. Uncut The aroma is sweet and the taste is enjoyable with no water or ice. Add a small ice cube and candy apple aroma comes out. This bourbon is truly great. Now the price was $130, over price yes but you are paying for the name. Overall if you have the money go for it and you will enjoy every sip.
