In our quest for the best premium bourbon, we turned our attention to Woodford Reserve Distiller's Select. Hailing from the heart of Kentucky, this bourbon immediately captivates with its rich amber hue, hinting at the complexity that lies within. The first sip reveals a beautifully balanced blend of flavors-sweet vanilla and caramel intertwine with notes of dried fruit and a subtle spice that lingers on the palate. At 90.4 proof, it packs a punch that is enriched by the smoothness characteristic of fine distillation. We particularly appreciate its versatility, making it equally delightful neat, on the rocks, or in a classic cocktail. Woodford Reserve Distiller's Select not only lives up to its reputation but also reinforces our belief that this bourbon deserves a prominent place on our shelf, inviting us back time and again for another tasting.
