The Story
Woodford Reserve Master’s Collection "Batch Proof" (2025 Release) is the distillery's highly anticipated annual barrel-proof offering. As part of the Master's Collection series, this expression takes Woodford's signature, highly approachable Kentucky Straight Bourbon profile and dials it up to its purest, unadulterated form.
Bottled straight from the barrel at its natural proof, the 2025 edition clocks in at a robust 119.5 proof (59.75% ABV). To create this release, Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall batched over 100 select barrels drawn from various production dates and different floors of their Kentucky warehouses. The resulting liquid is incredibly rich, opening with aromatic notes of peanut butter toffee, vanilla, and cinnamon, leading to a creamy palate of sorghum butter, clove, and a long, dark-berry finish.
