Distiller's Select is Woodford Reserve's flagship, launched in 1996 as "a new breed of premium bourbon" at the restored Labrot & Graham distillery in Versailles, Kentucky — a National Historic Landmark where distilling dates to 1812 and where Dr. James Crow refined the sour mash process. Here's the detail most people don't know: it's a blend of pot still whiskey distilled at Woodford's own copper stills, imported from Scotland, with column still spirit from Brown-Forman's Shively distillery, married before bottling. The mash bill runs 72% corn, 18% rye, 10% malted barley, aged in #4 char new American oak in heat-cycled stone warehouses, bottled at 90.4 proof (45.2% ABV) in the US. Expect butterscotch, char-grilled sweet corn, mocha, vanilla, ginger biscuit, and fresh oak on the nose, with caramel, cocoa, maple, banana bread, and dried tobacco on the palate, finishing with gentle rye spice. Reviewers agree on what it is: remarkably consistent, well-balanced, and easy to enjoy — a reliable daily drinker rather than a bottle chasing the latest flavor trend. It's also the official bourbon of the Kentucky Derby.
