Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey | NV | 750 ml.

WE92 Wine Enthusiast 9/1/2014

"After the usual aging time, this Bourbon is then moved to a heavily-toasted, lightly-charred barrel to extract additional oak flavor. The end result is deep amber in the glass, with bright spice cake and baked apple fragrance. On the palate, it’s lightly sweet at first, showing creamy caramel, but finishes dry, with touches of espresso, oak and Baker’s chocolate. Overall, a bold, flavorful sipper." (92 pts.)

WE93 Wine Enthusiast 7/1/2012

"For a warm and comforting sipper on a chilly evening, this is a fine way to go. This honey-hued Bourbon has a big, powerful, sweet caramel aroma, and a rich mix of buttery, oaky and toasty flavors. Consider it as a dessert pairing." (93 pts.)

WHA88 Whisky Advocate Summer, 2012

"Woodford’s first permanent line extension. Aged in two barrels with different toast and char amounts. More visceral than the standard Woodford Reserve, with a darker personality, extra wood spice, and a nice sweet foundation. Notes of cinnamon stick, dark berried fruit, roasted nuts, caramel, creamy vanilla, and polished leather." (88 pts.)
