Woodford Reserve Releases Latest Batch Proof Series: 119.5

Woodford Reserve has released its annual limited-edition, high-proof expression — Woodford Reserve Batch Proof. 

The 2024 bottling comes in at 119.5 proof.

Batch Proof showcases the flavors created from batching more than 100 different Woodford Reserve barrels together, then presenting that bourbon at the exact proof from the barrels. The barrels used to create Batch Proof are drawn from many dates of production and matured in various warehouses and different floors within those warehouses.

The liquid offers a range of sweet aromatics, fruit, spice, wood and grain characteristics at a higher proof, not the standard 90.4 proof.

“Batch Proof allows consumers to taste Woodford Reserve exactly as it comes out of the barrels, with all of its complex flavors intact,” says Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall.

The result is a nose of peanut Butter toffee cookie with dried fruit, vanilla and a dusting of cinnamon spice, the distillery reports. On the palate is creamy sorghum butter, clove and nutmeg, before a finish with dry berry medley chutney.

This release rolls out nationwide for the suggested retail price of $149.99 per 750-ml. bottle. It’s also available in limited quantities at Woodford Reserve Distillery starting at 9 a.m. ET today and also available for shipping in states where it is legal (KY, ND, NE, ND, D.C. only) in the online store at shop.woodfordreserve.com. 

This follows the recent release of the Woodford Reserve 2024 Holiday Bottle.
