This Woodford Reserve 2023 Kentucky Derby 149 Limited Edition Bottle celebrates the "Greatest Two Minutes in Sports" - the Kentucky Derby.  Woodford Reserve, the official sponsor, honors the 50th anniversary of Secretariat's record-breaking 1973 win. The bourbon itself is their standard expression, but the special bottle artwork by Kentucky artist Jaime Corum makes it a collector's item for Derby fans.

Description

While this is a limited-edition bottle, the bourbon inside is Woodford Reserve’s standard expression.  Here’s a potential breakdown of its taste profile:

Sweetness

Expect notes of vanilla, caramel, and maybe even a hint of honey from the aging process in charred oak barrels.

Spice

A touch of rye spice might be present, adding complexity.

Fruity Notes

Subtle hints of apple, pear, or citrus could emerge, depending on the grain bill and fermentation process.

Oak

A hint of dryness and tannins might be present from the oak barrels, adding structure to the overall flavor profile.
