Review & Tasting Notes
For a step-above the standard tier from any distillery, this bottle packs a punch of unexpected value! Lots of notes on the nose and are a delightful departure through the palate to the finish. The Double Oaked Bourbon from Woodford Reserve will prove itself to be a worthy daily pour for you and your fellow whiskey enthusiast friends and family!
An innovative approach to twice-barreled bourbon creates the rich and colorful flavor of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Uniquely matured in separate, charred oak barrels – the second barrel deeply toasted before a light charring – extracts additional soft, sweet oak character.

| Color | Deep Amber |
| Nose | Rich notes of dark fruit, caramel, sharp honey, dark chocolate, marzipan and toasted oak. Vanilla and orange zest with maybe even a hint of cherry coke |
| Palate | A full-bodied mix of vanilla, dark caramel, toasted pecans, apple, apricot and spices. Burn sugar turns to blacked charred marshmallow |
| Finish | Long and creamy with lingering hints of honeyed apple. Vanilla stays with you till the end with waves of more chocolate and caramel. Orange zest lingers with a kentucky warmness |
