Woodford Reserve Kentucky Derby 150th Edition 1L

• Woodford Reserve®, the Presenting Sponsor of the Kentucky Derby® honors “The Greatest Two Minutes in Sports” with the release of the 2024 commemorative Derby bottle.
• 
  
• This year’s special release features the artwork of Kentucky native Wylie Caudill, known for his bold, repetitive patterns, and his signature roses. His painting, “Adorned in Roses,” depicts a racing thoroughbred covered with red roses, with a background of multi-colored roses.
• This year marks the 150th running of the Derby, so Woodford enlisted Kentucky-born artist Wylie Caudill to design the new bottle’s label which features a painting of his called “Adorned in Roses.” “Wylie’s artwork embodies the spirit of Woodford Reserve, the liveliness of Churchill Downs during race day, and the heart of Kentucky,” said master distiller Elizabeth McCall in a statement. “I have painted my signature roses many times over the years, but this one is truly special,” added Caudill. “The colorful roses symbolize the diverse Derby fans from around the world, connecting people beyond the track.”
