The story behind it

The maker

Woodford Reserve was introduced in 1996 by the Brown-Forman Corporation, operating out of a historic distillery site originally founded by Elijah Pepper in 1812. Located in the heart of bluegrass country, the brand is celebrated for its commitment to five key sources of flavor: water, grain, fermentation, distillation, and maturation.

How it is made

Masterfully crafted at the historic Woodford Reserve Distillery in Versailles, Kentucky, this expression is inspired by historical recipe structures. By elevating wheat to the lead grain in the recipe, the distillery highlights a softer, delicate side of Kentucky straight whiskey.
