Woodford Reserve Distillery - Woodford Reserve Distillery Series - Double Double Oaked

Woodford Reserve Distillery in Versailles, Woodford County, Kentucky has released its highly-anticipated Distillery Series expression of Double Double Oaked Bourbon for 2023. The limited edition Double Double Oaked is a part of an annual series that celebrates Master Distiller Chris Morris’ commitment to innovation and craftsmanship.

“We are excited to once again offer one of our most-coveted annual bourbon releases,” Morris said. “This is the perfect winter bourbon with tasting notes of burnt marshmallows, cranberry and bittersweet chocolate.”

What is Woodford Reserve Double Double Oak?

Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked is made by finishing fully mature Woodford Reserve Double Oaked for an additional year in a second, heavily toasted, lightly charred, new oak barrel. The extra year in the barrel creates a bourbon that is distinctly spicier than its original counterpart, which is known for its sweeter taste and finish.
