Woodford Reserve is a premium bourbon produced by a distillery formerly known as the Labrot & Graham Distillery, originally founded by Elijah Pepper.
Woodford Reserve is the official bourbon of two of the most famous horse races: The Kentucky Derby and The Breeder’s Cup.
One of its distinguishing features is the numbering system used for each bottle --> individually numbered with a barrel number and a bottle number. Distilled from only the finest aged whiskey, this bourbon has exceptional depth and character, with a complex, full-bodied flavor and a uniquely smooth finish. When the distillate in the hand-selected barrels reaches its full maturity, the barrels are blended with the famous limestone water of Kentucky's Bluegrass Region
