Indulge in the ultimate expression of toasted oak. Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked is a masterful, limited-release bourbon crafted for the true connoisseur. This extraordinary expression takes Woodford’s celebrated Double Oaked bourbon and finishes it for an additional two years in a second, heavily toasted and lightly charred new oak barrel. The result is an intensely rich, deeply complex spirit that pushes the boundaries of traditional bourbon aging.
