Woodford Reserve Chocolate Malted Rye Whisper Redux
139.4 proof
NAS
Bourbon
Woodford Reserve
$375
Nose
No nose burn despite towering proof. Pure cocoa, dark chocolate, and dense vanilla without additive character.
Palate
Concentrated chocolate and fudge-like richness with vanilla. A wonderful marriage of bourbon and chocolate that reads as grain-driven rather than artificial.
Finish
Lingering fudge and cocoa notes with chocolate essence.
Overall Score
4.4 / 5
A singular, memorable expression where roasted chocolate-malted rye creates an authentic fudge-and-chocolate character that feels earned rather than added.
