There aren’t many Kentucky distilleries more beloved than Woodford Reserve. From its classic Kentucky Straight Bourbon to its limited releases, it’s the type of distillery that seems to produce nothing but notable expressions. One of its most sought-after limited-release whiskey is Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked Bourbon.

First released as a member of the Distillery Series in 2015, this beloved whiskey has been hard to find and highly coveted for years. It was never available nationwide—that is, until now.

Previously, if you wanted a bottle of Woodford Reserve Double Double Oaked, you had to line up at the Woodford Reserve Distillery in Versailles, Kentucky, when it was released in minimal quantities each winter. This iconic expression is available nationally at select retailers for the first time since its first release.

Woodford Reserve Double Double Oak gets its name because after completely maturing in charred oak, it spends another two years in a second, heavily toasted, lightly charred new oak barrel. The result is a complex, spicy whisky that begins (according to the brand) with a nose of maple syrup, butterscotch, caramel, dark chocolate, toasted marshmallows, and hickory smoke. The palate is a symphony of dried cherries, cranberries, blackberry jam, orchard fruits, chai tea, and gentle wintry spices. The finish is dry and warming and ends with more spice character.

“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 in a press release. “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.”

Where can I buy it?

Rum is produced all over the world from Louisiana to the Philippines, but its heart is in the Caribbean. Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Barbados, and many other islands are cranking out amazing, high-quality, nuanced rums.

There are few spirits more versatile than rum. This distilled spirit is made by fermenting and distilling sugarcane juice or molasses to make a clear, sweet liquor. It’s then bottled immediately or aged in charred oak barrels. Because of its complex flavors of sweet vanilla, caramel, oak, and spices, it’s a great spirit to mix and create your favorite rum drinks.
