The flavour is warm cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg married with brown sugar topped with raisins and blackberries with a hint of toasted oak, and raisins dusted with nutmeg.

Woodford Reserve is celebrating the return of Double XO Blend, an innovative expression available exclusively in Global Travel Retail. This release marks  the first GTR product under Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall’s leadership.

Double XO is a distinctive blend of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskeys that have been double and triple distilled, then finished in heavily toasted barrels and XO Cognac casks. The dual-finishing process adds layers of depth and character, resulting in a richly textured and refined whiskey that showcases Woodford Reserve’s continued commitment to innovation and craftsmanship.

“This unique whiskey has a depth, complexity and elegance unlike any of our current offerings, yet it is distinctively Woodford Reserve,” McCall said.

This limited-edition release has an MSRP of $174.99 for a 700 ml bottle and is available in limited quantities at select Global Travel Retail locations.

Colour is deep mahogany, while the aroma is chocolate-covered raisins dusted with nutmeg and toasted hazelnuts.
