Woodford Reserve debuted the 2017 Master’s Collection limited edition release: Cherry Wood Smoked Barley.
This expression is one of the first Kentucky Bourbons to use malted barley that has been exposed to cherry wood smoke. Rather than using natural malted barley, which is used in Woodford Reserve Bourbon, Master Distiller Chris Morris modified the grain recipe by selecting malt that had been smoked with cherry wood during the kilning process.
Cherry Wood Smoked Barley will be available for purchase in select markets within the U.S. beginning in November and in limited international markets with a suggested retail price of $99.99 (varying by market) for a 750ml bottle presented at 90.4 proof.
