This bourbon was initially launched in 2015 as part of the Distillery Series. The bourbon is aged for 5-7 years in its first barrel before spending up to two additional years in a second, heavily toasted, lightly charred new oak barrel. This finishing process imparts extraordinary flavor notes, giving Double Double Oaked a spicier profile compared to the sweeter taste of its predecessor.
“Rare and revered, this handcrafted double-barreled bourbon has a deep richness, unlike any other American whiskey on the market,” Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall said. “Resting 5-7 years in the first barrel, then up to two years in a second barrel, this liquid features extraordinary flavor notes. It is unexpected and complex.”
Packaged in a 700ml bottle at 90.4 proof, Double Double Oaked is priced at $199.99. A limited number of bottles were available at Woodford Reserve Distillery on January 13 at 10 AM EST, with a two-bottle purchase limit per person. For those unable to visit the distillery, the bourbon will also be available for purchase online in select states (KY, ND, NE, NH, D.C.), as well as at select Kentucky retailers. This release underscores Woodford Reserve’s commitment to innovation and the exceptional quality of its handcrafted bourbons.
