About Woodford Reserve Straight Malt
Woodford Reserve Straight Malt is a Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey that represents an experimental take on American whiskey, distinct from traditional single malt Scotch. Composed of 51% malted barley, 47% corn, and 2% rye, it's aged in new charred American oak at 90.4 proof. What makes it special is how the malt-forward mashbill amplifies nutty characteristics while maintaining Woodford's signature complexity. It's ideal for bourbon enthusiasts seeking something different—lighter and more nuanced than traditional bourbon but with familiar American whiskey production methods. Unlike Scotch malt whisky, which requires 100% malted barley and rarely uses new charred oak, this expression charts its own path as a distinctly American spirit.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Soft nutty notes dominate, complemented by light caramel and milk chocolate. Hints of brown spice, savory mint, and brown sugar mingle with freshly milled toasted oak, while subtle fruit character (apple, dried fruit, tropical fruit) adds complexity.
👅 Palate
Dark chocolate and caramel-coated nuts take center stage, dried out with cocoa powder and brown spice. A fruit medley brightens the profile, with toasted coconut and rich, bright oak character creating a full-bodied, bold experience with peppery oak notes.
✨ Finish
Nutty and subtly sweet chocolate malt notes linger. The finish is warm with medium length, leaving tannic oak and chocolate tones as the common thread.
