Woodford Reserve Bourbon DOUBLE OAKED 750ml

Details

Producer Description

94 Points Tasting Panel |Offers deep amber color; toasty caramel nose; lush and buttery with flavors of toasted oak, caramel and chocolate. Smooth, elegant and complex.

92 PointsWine Enthusiast |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 baking chocolate. Overall, a bold, flavorful sipper.

Producer Notes

Deep amber in color. Rich notes of dark fruit, caramel, sharp honey, chocolate and marzipan on the nose. A full-bodied mix of vanilla, dark caramel, hazelnut, apple, fruit and spices on the palate. The finish is long and creamy with lingering hints of honeyed apple.
