Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Whiskey 70cl

I really like the standard Woodford Reserve so thought I'd try this as a step up. Unfortunately its a step down. Woody, bitter and hot whereas the standard Woodford Reserve is smooth, vanilla and easy drinking. This was fine in cocktails but not great as a sipping bourbon.

N: Fleshy red apple.
P: Full flavoured. Cherry powder bomb.
A: There's a chalky currant finish with sufficient remnants of the cherry palate to remain wonderfully and subtly flavoursome.

Bought as a gift as it’s his favourite. Smooth and brilliant in cocktails

Don’t agree with all the negative comments. I use this in all my bourbon based cocktails and I will continue to buy. I agree it is on the strong side but gives real depth to a Manhattan sweetened with sherry.

Hey!
I am from Costa Rica whiskey/whisky lover and I can tell you that Woodford Reserve DOUBLE OAKED is simple AMAZING… so far my #1 bourbon 🥃 for sure!!!

Treacle, vanilla, wet tobacco on the nose. Dark chocolate and mint, espresso on the palatte. Short to medium oaky finish (not a whole lot of flavour to the finish, nice bit of warmth). For me, a solid 3.5-4/5. At £40-45 I'll happily replace this bottle, anything above that and its getting a bit steep for what it is. Decent sipper. In fact, it's so easy drinking I've had to hide it at the back of the cupboard. My favourite of the Woodford Reserve range that I've tried so far. If you're a fan of coffee and dark chocolate flavours I think you'll really take to this.

I was more than disappointed with this bourbon.Frankly I thought it was overly bitter and disgusting. $50 what a rip off.

Treacley toffee, sweet and smooth. Enjoying on the rocks.

Great flavour profile, any of these one stars are probably not whiskey drinkers.

Brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, oak, maple... everything I want from damn good bourbon
