It's simple math: Double Double Oaked equals quadruple enjoyment.

The Woodford Reserve Distillery (people born in the 1800s probably knew it as the Old Oscar Pepper Distillery) was established back in 1812 — which means it's older than lawnmowers or sewing machines. Now it belongs to the Kentucky-based behemoth Brown-Forman, and one of the numerous Spirits they produce is the eponymous Woodford Reserve, a top-class small batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, introduced to our palates in 1996. The distillery boasts ancient copper pot stills and century-old cypress wood fermenters. They have one of the only heat cycled barrelhouses in the world as well, which gives the Spirit its legendary color and flavor.

You might be familiar with Woodford's Double Oaked Kentucky Straight Bourbon. You know, it's the one that's made by taking the classic Woodford Reserve and putting it in heavily toasted and lightly charred oak barrels. Well, the Double Double takes the finished liquid to a second new oak barrel for an additional year of finishing. It's a fine line between madness and genius — in this case, our bet is on the latter. And so is that of countless thirsty bourbonites who line up each year for this limited annual release. We can't all be wrong.

Appearance / Color
Dark amber

Nose / Aroma / Smell
The nose is super rich with oak in the foreground. Then there's caramel, maple syrup, butterscotch, chocolate, and a whiff of smoke.

Flavor / Taste / Palate
There's plenty of that oak on the palate with some spice in the form of cloves. The flipside is fruity with dried and dark fruit, namely cherries, cranberries, blackberries, and apples.

Finish
The finish is warm and dry, with some residual oak spice and sweetness.

Bourbon only needs to be placed in a new oak container for a few seconds to be called Bourbon. Fresh from the still and unaged Bourbon is called a White Dog. Recently, many of the larger distillers have started packaging this harsh, clear grain spirit for sale.
Bourbon rules refer to manufacturing methods rather than location. Bourbon must be matured in new and charred American white oak casks for at least 2 years. If the bottle has no age statement, the Bourbon is at least 4 years old. No coloring or flavoring of any type is allowed, and the mash bill must contain at least 51% corn.

Yellowstone Bourbon has had several owners throughout its history, including J.B. Dant, D.H. Taylor, The Glenmore Distillery, United Distillers & Vintners, the David Sherman Company, Heaven Hill, and David Sherman (now known as Luxco).

Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Straight Bourbon must be matured for at least 2 years. If a bottle has no age statement, it’s at least 4 years old.
At any given time, there are more barrels of Bourbon in Kentucky than there are people. The population of the Bluegrass State is about 4.4 million. Today there are more than 5 million barrels of Bourbon sitting in the rick-houses of that Old Kentucky Home. That’s nearly 300 bottles of Bourbon per person, or about 60 gallons each.
