Woodford Reserve – Holiday 2023 (70cl, 43.2%)

Woodford Reserve Holiday is the 2023 edition of the limited-edition bourbon the distillery releases each year for the festive season. It is bottled at 43.2% in a 70cl bottle. The 2023 release departs from the rest of the series with a simpler golden label, created by Nick Hirst, a British-born artist and architect. The nose is typically described as orchard fruits, crushed mint, citrus and vanilla. On the palate come sticky toffee, holiday spice, aged wood and chocolate-dipped grains.
