“Madeira Cask Finish is a tremendous way to celebrate 20 years of the Master’s Collection. In 2007, Woodford Reserve was among the first bourbons to finish in wine casks. It was quite controversial at the time, but is now a common practice by other distillers. This 20th expression marks that historic milestone, with a new Madeira wine cask.”  

"Whisky is liquid sunshine."
