What is Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon?

Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon takes an innovative approach to aging, spending time in two distinct barrels to develop its rich, complex flavor profile. Interestingly, this unique process was inspired by the "finishing" techniques used in Scotch whisky production, making Double Oaked a true bridge between bourbon and Scotch traditions.

Why do we love Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon?

Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon stands out for its innovative twice-barreled aging process, where the spirit is finished in a second, deeply toasted oak barrel to extract additional soft, sweet oak character. This unique maturation method results in a rich, full-bodied bourbon with complex layers of dark fruit, caramel, and toasted oak flavors that set it apart from traditional single-barrel bourbons.

How do you drink Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon?

Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon shines when sipped neat or with a single large ice cube, allowing its complex flavors to unfold slowly on the palate. Its rich, oaky profile makes it ideal for sipping on cool autumn evenings or pairing with hearty dishes like grilled meats, aged cheeses, or dark chocolate desserts, though it also performs beautifully in spirit-forward cocktails that showcase its depth and character.

Tasting Notes

How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Rich aromas of dark fruit like blackberry and plum mingle with warm caramel and sharp honey. Notes of dark chocolate, nutty marzipan, and toasted oak round out the complex bouquet.

Palate: A full-bodied sip delivers waves of flavor. Smooth vanilla and deep caramel lead, followed by toasted hazelnut and crisp apple. Hints of dark berries and baking spices add depth and complexity.

Finish: Long and creamy with a pleasant warmth. Lingering notes of honeyed apple and oak spice slowly fade, leaving a subtle sweetness on the tongue.

Woodford Reserve Double Oaked undergoes a unique two-barrel aging process. After initial maturation in charred white oak, the bourbon is transferred to a second barrel that's been deeply toasted and lightly charred, allowing it to extract additional flavors and develop a richer, more complex profile.

Woodford Reserve Double Oaked isn't just twice-barreled—it's a time traveler. The second barrel is crafted from wood that's air-dried for 9 months, nearly triple the industry standard, creating a deeper, more complex flavor profile.

During production, this bourbon experiences a whopping 212 flavor notes, ranging from sweet aromatics to spicy oak. Master Distillers carefully balance these to create the final product's unique taste.

The "Double Oaked" name is slightly misleading—it's actually triple-oaked. The first barrel is toasted and charred, the second is deeply toasted then lightly charred, and staves from a third barrel are added to the aging warehouse to influence the bourbon's maturation environment.
