Woodford's Oat Grain Bourbon substitutes oats for rye entirely: a grain change that removes the assertive spice architecture and replaces it with the soft, creamy, almost porridge-like sweetness and texture that oats produce. Triple-distilled through Woodford's copper pot stills and matured in new charred American white oak, the result is a bourbon that meets all legal requirements of the category while producing a flavor profile unlike any other major distillery's standard production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInspired by historical grain recipes and developed by Woodford's team as part of their ongoing grain experimentation series, the Oat Grain is one of the most intellectually interesting bourbon releases of the Masters Collection — proof that changing a single grain in a mash bill can produce a completely different whiskey from the same distillery, equipment, and process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft and creamy — caramel, light honey, toasted grain, vanilla, and fresh-sawn oak with none of the rye spice that characterizes standard Woodford; unusually gentle and rounded for a 90.4 proof bourbon\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich and rounded — caramel, vanilla, soft honey, creamy oat sweetness, walnut, and toasted wood; the absence of rye spice makes it one of the softest-drinking bourbons at this quality level\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, creamy, and warm with soft caramel and oak tapering gently into a clean close\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Woodford Reserve Distillery, Versailles, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Masters Collection\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMash Bill:\u003c\/strong\u003e Corn, oats (replacing rye), malted barley\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Triple copper pot still\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45.2% (90.4 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse the full \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhat is oat grain bourbon?\u003c\/strong\u003e A bourbon where oats replace rye as the flavoring grain.
