The Story
Woodford Reserve 2020 Double Double Oaked Bourbon — a discontinued 375ml vintage release from the annual Double Double Oaked program, representing the 2020 production year of the four-barrel Kentucky straight bourbon that passes through two complete Double Oaked cycles before bottling.
Each annual 375ml Double Double Oaked release captures the distillery's production character from that specific vintage year — the same four-barrel toasted oak process as the current full-size expression, but in a collectible half-bottle format that has since been discontinued. The 2020 vintage is now available only through secondary market channels and specialist allocated retailers like Wooden Cork. 8 bottles in current stock.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Rich caramel, vanilla, honey, and toasted wood — the multi-layered sweetness of the four-barrel process with vintage character from 2020 production
- Palate: Caramel, honey, vanilla cream, baked apple, and toasted oak — dessert-forward with bourbon structure beneath
- Finish: Long and honeyed with toasted wood and caramel
Specs
- Distillery: Woodford Reserve Distillery, Versailles, Kentucky
- Style: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Double Double Oaked
- Process: Four-barrel toasted oak sequence
- ABV: 45.2% (90.4 Proof)

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is this discontinued? The annual 375ml Double Double Oaked program produced a limited number of bottles per vintage year; once that allocation is sold through, it is not replenished. The 2020 375ml is permanently discontinued.
- How does the 2020 vintage compare to other years? Year-to-year variation in the Double Double Oaked program is subtle — same four-barrel process, same distillery, slight differences in barrel selection and maturation timing by vintage. Collectors seeking year-over-year comparison can find 2016–2023 vintages at Wooden Cork.
- Is the 375ml the same whiskey as the 750ml? Same production process and recipe; the 375ml discontinued format differs from the current 750ml full-size release only in format and vintage year.
