Master's Collection No. 20 is Woodford's twentieth-anniversary release — bourbon, rye, and wheat whiskey each finished in Madeira casks, then blended with unfinished wheat whiskey — and VinePair scored it 90 for chocolate-covered cherries, dried figs, and black walnut. Woodford Reserve is Brown-Forman's showpiece distillery on Glenn's Creek in Versailles, Kentucky, distilling since 1812 on the site and running the only triple copper pot stills in bourbon; the Master's Collection is its annual experiment, one variable a year, and No. 20 marked two decades of the series with the most complex build yet. Woodford bourbon, Woodford rye, and Woodford wheat whiskey were each finished in casks that held Madeira — the fortified, heat-aged island wine — then married with unfinished wheat whiskey for lift, and bottled at 90.4 proof. VinePair: funky dry wine opening to bready brown sugar, toasted stave, vanilla, walnut, leather, Luxardo cherry, and red-pepper jelly on the nose; dried cranberry, fig, apricot, tart cherry, black walnut, dark chocolate, and cherry syrup on the palate; and a creamy finish of chocolate-covered cherry, coffee bean, and leather tannin. Honest note: Madeira-finished whiskey is rare and this is the most ambitious blend Woodford has released — for the Master's Collection completist, the fortified-wine drinker, and the dessert pour. Neat, after dinner. Master's Collection No. 20, Madeira.Buy Woodford Master's Collection No.20 Madeira Cask Finish online with fast shipping right to your door.
