Woodford Reserve introduces its first American Single Malt via its Distillery Series, a 12-Year-Old American Single Malt Whiskey.To craft this new expression, Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall used 100% malted barley, triple pot distilled, and aged for 12 years in used whiskey barrels. “I’m excited to release this 12-year-old American Single Malt, a whiskey that proves just how essential long aging in used barrels is for unlocking its full flavor potential. Its lighter color and nuanced flavor profile demonstrate the importance of time. I believe it’s one of the most authentic American Single Malts ever released — the first of its kind,” said McCall.The 12-Year-Old American Single Malt is 90.4 proof and is part of Woodford Reserve’s Distillery Series, which was created to push the distillery’s creative boundaries and introduce new expressions to the market.Woodford Reserve Distillery Series 12-Year-Old American Single Malt Whiskey is available in limited quantities at select Kentucky retailers and at the Woodford Reserve Distillery for $99.99.
