Woodford Reserve Batch Proof 123.6 is a limited Master's Collection release of Kentucky straight bourbon, bottled at full batch strength — 123.6 proof — rather than the standard 90.4.
Part of the Woodford Reserve Master's Collection, the Batch Proof series bottles the distillery's Kentucky straight bourbon at its natural batch strength, offering the whiskey in a more intense, unadulterated form — much like tasting it straight from the barrel in the warehouse. At 123.6 proof (61.8% ABV), the higher strength amplifies Woodford Reserve's signature caramel, vanilla, and spice, adding depth, body, and a long, warming finish. Produced using Woodford's copper pot still distillation and aged in new charred oak, it is a coveted, limited release for collectors and cask-strength enthusiasts.
