Woodford Reserve

Woodford Reserve is a premium small-batch Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, produced by the Brown-Forman Corporation in Woodford County, Kentucky. Known for its quality, craftsmanship, and rich flavor notes, Woodford Reserve has a storied history, with distilling beginning as early as 1812. It is officially tied to the Kentucky Derby, releasing special commemorative bottles annually to celebrate the event. We were tasked with creating an engaging digital experience to elevate their new Flavor Note Collection and celebrate their association with the Kentucky Derby. Our goal was to highlight the intricate flavor profiles of Woodford Reserve’s offerings while capturing the elegance and excitement of Derby season.
