Woodford Reserve Master's Collection Madeira Finish
Introducing the 20th Woodford Reserve's Master's Collection release - Madeira Cask Finish. This release features Woodford Reserve Whiskey that was finished in Madeira casks and blended with wheat whiskey, creating uniquely fruit-forward whiskies.
For the 2024 Master’s Collection release, Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall experimented with finishing bourbon, rye, and wheat whiskies in Madeira barrels— creating uniquely fruit-forward whiskies. Hailing from the Madeira islands off the coast of Portugal, the Madeira barrels are rich with dried fruit, spice, and nutty flavors from the fortified wine they once held. To further enhance the flavors of the Madeira-finished whiskies, the distillery blended them with fruit-forward Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey. Together, this blend elevates the expansive fruit and floral notes found in Woodford's Wheat Whiskey to create this year’s Master Collection presentation: Woodford Reserve Madeira Finish Blend.
