Woodford Reserve Returns to Heirloom Red Corn for Distillery Series

Week of June 8, 2026

Woodford Reserve announced Red Corn, the latest limited-edition expression in its experimental Distillery Series, on May 21.

This Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey features an heirloom red corn variety that produces what the distillery calls a "distinctively bold and spicy profile." The release marks a departure from Woodford's typical post-distillation experiments, focusing instead on the grain itself.

Grain-forward innovation beats gimmicky finishing any day of the week.
