Woodford Reserve has launched a new limited edition, ‘Woodford Reserve Batch Proof.’ The expression debuts as a part of the Woodford Master’s [Collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/world-whiskey-society) series, which celebrates Chris Morris and Distiller Elizabeth McCall’s contributions to the brand. The ‘Batch Proof’ whiskey is a blend of straight-from-the-barrel whiskeys bottled at their actual proof. The whiskey uses the same grain and process as Woodford’s other whiskey offering, the ‘Woodford Reserve [Kentucky Straight Bourbon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bourbon-flight),’ but adds notes of vanilla and toasted oak for a premium drinking experience.

The limited edition whiskey is primarily sold in the U.S. and global markets at a price point of $129.99 USD for a 750ml bottle. The ‘Woodford Reserve Batch Proof’ debuts on the Woodford website on July 12.
