JUNE 11, 2024 (VERSAILLES, KY) — Today, Woodford Reserve unveils a remarkable limited-release bourbon collection crafted by Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall and her father, Tim O’Neill, just in time for Father’s Day.

These special bottles honor the passion and spirit of fathers everywhere, created by two generations of bourbon lovers. Earlier this year, McCall and her father spent a memorable day at the Woodford Reserve Distillery, developing batches of seven different two-barrel blends to fit their unique taste profiles.

“I brought my Dad to the distillery and put him to work, and it was such a special experience. We had a wonderful time creating seven one-of-a-kind bourbons that others can share with their fathers,” said Elizabeth McCall.

Elizabeth’s mother worked in the spirits industry, but it was her father who first introduced her to whiskey. “I’ve always been a bourbon drinker. I was very excited when my daughter asked me to join her,” added Tim O’Neill.

This limited-edition bourbon collection is now available at Woodford Reserve Distillery and online (in states where shipping is legal). Each 1L bottle is priced at $79.99.
