Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon is the featured bottle in Issue No. 006 — Why Woodford Reserve Became a Standard, which breaks down the production system behind its consistency: long fermentation with a proprietary yeast strain, whiskey blended from both pot stills and column stills, barrels built to Brown-Forman’s own specification, and heat-cycled warehouse aging.
