Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked Is Back For 2023

Woodford Reserve just released its latest Double Double Oaked Bourbon for 2023.

A prepared statement from the whiskey maker noted that this release is part of an annual series that celebrates Master Distiller Chris Morris’ work and innovation with the spirit.

The new release is now available at the Woodford Reserve Distillery in Kentucky, and customers are limited to two 375ml bottles.

“We are excited to once again offer one of our most-coveted annual bourbon releases,” Morris said. “This is the perfect winter bourbon with tasting notes of burnt marshmallows, cranberry and bittersweet chocolate.”

He explained that Double Double Oaked is made by finishing fully mature Woodford Reserve Double Oaked for an additional year in a second, heavily toasted, lightly charred, new oak barrel.

The extra year in the barrel, Morris said, creates a bourbon that is distinctly spicier than its original counterpart, which is known for its sweeter taste and finish.

Double Double Oaked clocks in at 90.4 proof and has a suggested retail price of $59.99 for a 375ml bottle. It will also be available in limited quantities at select Kentucky retailers.

Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked distiller’s notes:

  • Color: Roasted coffee bean.
  • Aroma: A medley of maple syrup, dark butterscotch, brittle caramel, bittersweet chocolate, burnt marshmallow and sweet hickory smoke notes dominate the nose.
  • Taste: Rich dried cherry and cranberry fruit with blackberry jam, hints of ripe apple. Chai tea and warming clove notes develop to spice up the palate.
  • Finish: Warm and drying with a lingering clove character.

Woodford Reserve Distillery is located in Kentucky’s thoroughbred country, just outside of Versailles. The distillery itself is a National Historic Landmark, and the whiskey brand is part of the Brown-Forman Corporation.
