Description
Alongside the Oak release the other 2018 Master’s Collection bottling is the Woodford Reserve’s Oat Grain Kentucky Bourbon. Pricing around $130 per 750 ml bottle as well, it is notable for including in its four-grain recipe while minimizing the rye content. This is done in a nod to the traditional flavors of grain found in Irish whiskeys. Official tasting notes for this “rich Russet brown” colored bourbon indicate.
Aroma| A soft complex layer of oak character (resinous, fresh sawn, toasted, charred notes) is sweetened with a touch of caramel and brightened with a hint of cinnamon and peppermint spice atop a dash of orange zest.
Taste| Delicate grain and oak notes evolve into a ripe apple peel fruitiness backed by an orange peel crispness. A touch of caramel and peppermint build at the end.
Finish| Long with faint memories of apple and orange all dusted with cocoa
