    Product Description

    Woodford Reserve, the primary sponsor of the Kentucky Derby, pays tribute to the renowned horse race with the introduction of the 2023 commemorative Derby bottle. This year's special edition commemorates the 50th anniversary of a momentous occasion in sports history: Secretariat's victory in the 1973 Derby, which still stands as the fastest time at 1 minute and 59 2/5 seconds. The bottle showcases the artwork of Jaime Corum, a talented artist from Kentucky renowned for her captivating horse portraits. Corum's painting titled "Secretariat – Still the Greatest" depicts the legendary horse in the Winner's Circle at Churchill Downs.

    Tasting Notes

    Aroma: The aroma is robust and pronounced, filled with abundant dried fruit notes and subtle hints of mint and oranges delicately coated with a cocoa powder-like dusting. There is also a faint presence of vanilla and tobacco spice.

    Taste: The taste is opulent, luscious, and harmoniously balanced, offering a multifaceted experience of citrus, cinnamon, and cocoa. The flavors of toffee, caramel, chocolate, and spice intermingle and delight the palate.

    Finish: The finish is exceptionally smooth, initially evoking a silky and almost creamy sensation. It lingers on the tongue, providing a long-lasting and gratifying warmth.

    Color: The color is immaculately pure and displays a brilliant hue of honey amber.
