Brown-Forman has added a new permanent expression to its Woodford Reserve range, a straight malt whiskey based on historical recipes.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Woodford Reserve Straight Malt Whiskey is crafted from 51% malted barley \u2013 unlike a typical 100% malt whiskey \u2013 plus 47% corn and 2% rye. The expression has been aged in new charred oak barrels. The malt base results in a whiskey that is \u201crichly flavourful and complex\u201d and intensifies the nutty notes found in Woodford Reserve.<\/p>\n

On the nose, it has soft nutty notes drizzled with light caramel, milk chocolate and a fruit character. While the palate has hints of dark chocolate and caramel coated nuts, cocoa powder and brown spice.<\/p>\n

\u201cInspired by history and a desire to make the best tasting whiskies in the world, Woodford Reserve is charting its own unique path with this new malt whiskey based on historical precedence and our commitment to flavour, something that\u2019s ingrained in everything we do,\u201d said master distiller Chris Morris.<\/p>\n

TASTING NOTES<\/strong>
\nProof: 90.4\u00b0
\nAppearance: Warm Umber.
\nNose: Soft nutty notes drizzled with light caramel and milk chocolate coat a layer of fruit character (apple, dried fruit, tropical fruit). Hints of brown spice, savoury mint and brown sugar mingle with a rich note of freshly milled toasted oak.
\nTaste: Dark chocolate and caramel coated nuts are dried out with a dusting of cocoa powder and brown spice. A fruit medley brightens a trace of toasted coconut and rich, bright oak character.
\nFinish: Nutty and subtly sweet chocolate malt notes
\nGrain Recipe: 51% Malted Barley, 47% Corn, 2% Rye<\/p>\n
