Anniversary-Celebrating American Whiskeys

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Woodford Reserve Marks the 150th Kentucky Derby

— April 13, 2024 — Social Good
Woodford Reserve marks the 150th Kentucky Derby and celebrates the event's longstanding legacy with a distinctive release of American Whiskey. This special edition spirit sets itself apart on the market by undergoing a unique aging process in three distinct casks—the original bourbon barrel, a cognac cask, and a bespoke barrel seasoned in the Kentucky Derby Winner's Circle. Limited to just 150 bottles, each America Whiskey is presented in a handcrafted crystal decanter by Baccarat. Priced at $15,000 per bottle and housed in a bespoke leather case, the decanter features a crystal stopper infused with 24K gold, echoing the iconic Garland of Roses.

Woodford Reserve's Master Distiller, Elizabeth McCall, describes the decanter as a tribute to the spirit and spectacle of the Kentucky Derby. One bottle will be presented to the winner of the 2024 Derby, while another is generously donated to charity, benefiting The Backside Learning Center, which supports families working in the racing industry.
