Notes: Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is a unique expression from the Woodford Reserve family, showcasing a two-barrel maturation process. After the initial aging in charred oak barrels, the bourbon is then finished in a second, lightly toasted barrel, adding a layer of richness and depth to the flavor profile. This finishing process enhances the whiskey’s natural sweetness while imparting additional complexity and a smooth, rich mouthfeel. Known for its creamy texture and well-balanced flavors, Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is a favorite for those who appreciate a more robust, oak-forward bourbon with a touch of sweetness.
