About the Bourbon

This new expression marks a milestone for Woodford Reserve, showcasing the brand’s highest-proof offering to date at 139.4 proof. The 12-year-old liquid builds upon the foundation of the original Chocolate Whisper release from 2021.

Please note that no chocolate has been added to the Bourbon. However, it gets its name because of the additional years in the barrel. The liquid has developed a deeper complexity, offering rich and robust flavors of chocolate and coffee that elevate this expression.

“It is exciting to see how Chocolate Whisper Redux evolved since its initial release in 2021,” said Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall. “A longer barrel age has enhanced its bold flavor notes while preserving the long finish.”

Chocolate Whisper Redux 139.4 is part of Woodford Reserve’s Distillery Series, which the brand tells us was created to push Woodford Reserve’s creative boundaries and introduce new expressions to the market.
