Been several years at least since I've had Woodford..
Reminded of exactly why this whiskey initially converted me into a lover of bourbon.
Jameson was my go to for a while until I first tried this.

I started out the exact same way. Woodford made me a convert to a Bourbon aficionado. Eagle Rare followed right after. I went into bourbon without any love for whiskey prior, just IPA’s & Syrah’s & Malbec’s.
Check the old bottle style (2015). My first bottle purchase. I still have it too.

Went looking for a 375 while on vacation in FL. Didn’t feel like paying $18 for a 375 of Maker’s so got this for $12. A FL product so not sure why it says Kentucky. Not horrible but got a smoky musty thing going on.

Cool that it's actually age-stated. Could be sourced from just about anywhere in KY, the profile sounds like Ezra, which is HH sourced.Went looking for a 375 while on vacation in FL.

It's my Saturday and my wife's spring break so we started early with a taste is something new.
This is a bit hot, but a few drops of water opened it up nicely. Amazing!

That's an awesome bottle. Some batches drink hotter than others. What's the proof? That's how you tell them apart. I recall a bottle of batch 8 that was hard to drink neat, weighing in at 129.5 proof...
129.5 for this bottle.
I treated this like a single malt scotch tasting, first sip neat then added about a half teaspoon of water to open it up.
My wife and I really liked it. Complex layers of subtle flavors.
