Woodford Reserve Straight Malt Whiskey

This malt whiskey shows some maple syrup and honey sweetness but its character comes from savory notes of earthiness and wet leaves. The easygoing palate offers some stone fruit and sweet overripe banana like a banana cream pie with graham cracker crust. But the finish circles back to savory and herbal suggesting youth. A creative if peculiar choice for Woodford crafted from 51% malted barley.
