Process & Profile

Woodford Reserve Kentucky Derby 152 Edition is a commemorative annual release celebrating the 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby. The bourbon inside is Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, produced at Woodford Reserve Distillery in Versailles, Kentucky. It is crafted from a traditional bourbon mash of corn, rye, and malted barley, distilled using a combination of pot stills and column stills, and matured in new charred American oak barrels.
