Distillery: Woodford Reserve Distillery

The release of Woodford Reserves Double Oaked was arguably the most hotly awaited event in bourbon whiskey for the last several years. While Woodford Reserve has released some limited editions in the past, until now Woodfords popular small batch remained the sole regular product in distillerys line. In fact, Labrot and Graham was for some time the only major small batch-making distillery that still had only one whiskey in regular production. In its limited edition series, Woodford Reserve began experimenting with a scotch-making idea, that of finishing their whiskey in a different type of barrel for several months. The Maple Finish, for example, put the distillerys bourbon into specially-constructed, toasted maple wood barrels for a second round of aging, in much the same way that a scotch distillery might finish its product in old bourbon or sherry casks. One of those limited editions was a seasoned oak cask finish bourbon, which was so popular that it led to the introduction of the Double Oaked. The finishing barrel is fashioned from oak, and receives twice the toasting of the standard Woodford Reserve barrel, before then being lightly charred. Brown-Forman takes their barrels very seriously, so much so that they own their own cooperage, and the result of all this tinkering is a barrel with a markedly different character from the normal Woodford Reserve cask, in which the bourbon receives an extra several months worth of polishing, thereby changing the character.
