I'm so glad you guys reviewed this. Double oaks are absolutely some of my favorite bourbons, but even I was a little skeptical of the idea of a double double. How much of a good thing is too much? As an aside...Kurt, I've heard you mention a couple times bottles that you always replace once you finish one. I have some of those as well, WRDO being one. I think this would make an awesome show topic--Top 10 Bottles I Always Repurchase.
Just picked up a Double Oaked Store pick from Total Wine and More in Knoxville, TN. It’s a wonderful maple/brown sugar bourbon that’s going to be hard to put down.
Love Woodford Double but it’s $70 locally. Lucky that I’m just a 25 min drive to Ohio where it’s $55 so usually pick one up when I’m across the river. Cheers SLB!
At the beginning of last year we found out we were having a baby boy. Headed to Total Wine in my city Jacksonville, FL to pick up something to celebrate with. They had a Double Oaked store pick. It’s as good as you think it is.
I just picked up a bottle of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked in NY $66.99 to included not much of a nose but great flavor. Kind of smells like alcohol & Elmer’s glue 🤪 th taste is absolutely delicious maple syrup, caramel & toffee blended together. I want waffles with this on
The Starlight double oaked is no joke. Tried it on a whim and loved it. Plus its a few proof points higher then the Woodford so bonus points. Also Sagamore double oaked is my super jam
Great show guys! The standard Woodford DO is so good, when I have it I sometimes wonder why I bother with anything else. If it were more like 100 proof, it'd be perfect!
Believe it or not, I was able to snag one of these the same day you were able to. The stars aligned and I was nearby. I cracked it open that night. I've had releases before that have been incredible, but this one didn't hit the usual mark for me. There was a pepper, butter, and funk taste that was leaning towards almost a savory bourbon, which made me raise eyebrows. Don't give up on the DDO if you see them. They're different with each release! Great video gentlemen! 👊
I enjoy the Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. I have a Double Oaked store pick done by Bayway Liquors in NJ from 2021. Actually, forgot I had it. This video made me go check and there it was stoll unopened. Great work gentlemen.
Since this video I had to go out and try that double Oakes, and the difference between double oaked and destillers select is night and day, wow…thoroughly enjoying that bottle
I’m so glad y’all reviewed this! I watched it the day it came out then on vacation I saw the bottle and grabbed it. The double oak has become one of my top whiskeys. Which is high praise from me because I prefer scotch
I got a pick of double oaked a couple years ago from a store in Evansville. Gave it to a buddy for his 40th. I haven’t tried it yet, but he absolutely loves it.
I also love the Woodford Double Oaked, so I'm glad you saved me from picking up he double, double if I happened to run into it. Doesn't sound like an improvement over the Double Oaked. I have recently seen a couple of reviews of the 13th Colony Double Oaked and I would love to find a bottle of that. 9 years old and around 130 proof. It sounds spectacular.
Soooooo, you know at this rate you'll hit 200K end of August/first of September. Right? Love love love the. channel. Thank you so much for all you do. Cheers!.
I was pouring some samples to trade with a buddy when I found a spare WRDO bottle.. and it is a pick. I didn't realize they were uncommon now or I would have given him a sample of that since he also loves the WRDO. I forgot about it since it's behind my other two bottles of WRDO since I also keep at least 1 spare in the cabinet at all times. Now I really need to go open that pick up and try it out... the double double worried me but I have had some of their other distillery series before and they've been hit or miss but I like the experimentation. The four grain was great (wish I bought two) the five wood.. more was shared than I drank.
I love seeing the love for Woodford Double Oaked. I tried it early on and loved it, and have been trying as many other toasted barrel bourbons as I can. With it being so readily available, I expected the harder to find ones to top it easily. This was my first lesson in hard to find does not mean better. OF1910 is close, but I still have not found anything that I would consider to be clearly better than Woodford. ECTB was probably my biggest let down. I expected it to wow me, and it just didn't.
Woodford Reserve double oaked $64 out the door) is incredible I like it on ice or in an old fashioned. I would love to know what that double, double oaked tastes like but that's never going to happen, that's a unicorn bottle (upstate NY) if I ever saw one! Awesome review and 🥃Cheers!
Great video guys. Woodford DO is a favorite of mine as well, so I was curious about the DDO version. I’d still like to try it, but you’ve saved me from my FOMO. For now!!
Awesome video!!! Trent I'm like you don't like strong oaky bourbon. Maybe in the future do a video suggesting bourbons with light oaky notes. Thanks for all yawl do!!!
Always keep the Woodford double oak on the shelf. It’s not always my favorite for taste, but always for the nose. Just the nose itself will add 15 minutes of enjoyment to a pour.
In a barrel, from a new barrel, re-barreled once again from the original barrel, and new/used white oak thingy...barrel... I think into that sloppy second's new/old double-knot barrel-barrel. From a new barrel. Of-course. Into the Whiskey Stratosphere!!! However......but??? Long time sub. Love you, guys. In case nobody noticed...I'm drinking - right now!
I too was able to get a couple bottles of the DD at the distillery a couple weeks ago. I LOVE it. To my amateur tongue it tastes like WRDO-light. Love the OF1910 too. Thanks you guys! 10:34
Was so excited to get a pour of the double double while in Kentucky last year. It was a big letdown, I won't be chasing it. Now the Woodford Honey Barrel distillery release..? One of my all time faves
Was at the beautiful Woodford Reserve a couple years ago, and the double oak was definitely the standout. Although, I get a cognac note from it. Something I keep around all the time, too.
interesting that this video just came out. I just went to a small store and they had a barrel pick of woodford double oaked. In short, the intensity in the barrel was brought down a tad but stretched out the finish. I enjoyed it for sure
Thanks for the video. Just getting into the bourbon rabbit hole as I am a Gin drinker as my go to spirit. Starting with your bourbon starter list to expand my knowledge.
Charlotte Bourbon Society was allocated 3 WDO barrel picks last year, at the same time. All 3 are very different. "CBS #3" is amazing -- like an Old Fashioned with a square of chocolate in a bottle...
Recently got a Sagamore DO. Tasting it after Stagg B18 made it tasle like I licked a tree, tasting on its own, gave me those sweet, marshmallowy vibes. I would give the Woodford DDO a try when you don't have something else next to it.
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is my second favorite bourbon, so I'm glad to see this. I won't be able to get the double double - I can only afford the Double Oaked by the pint - but I sure wish I could taste it. I'm sure there's a whisky out there that has too much oak for me, but I've not yet met it. 🙂
Sagamore double oaked rye is legitimate and so is the Starlight double oaked rye. My favorite doubled oaked bourbon is the Woodford and 1910… didn’t care for the EC double oaked… Thanks for the review
Even before I was really “into” bourbon, double oaked was always a favorite. Interesting to see this Double Double release. Would be interested to try a pour, but don’t think I’d try to find a bottle
Woodford Double Oak is one of my all time favorites! You should try the Malt whiskey they have started making - it’s like a snickers in a bottle IMO. Cool video idea for you all would be doing a whole lineup of Woodford Reserve (wheat, malt, rye, etc.)
Woodford Reserve is what made me fall in love with bourbon. The Double Oaked version just increased that love for me. Such good products. Always on hand at my house.
My Brother picked me up a bottle of the WDO, at the distillery, about five years ago. It was amazing, way better than any of the off the shelf bottles. It seemed much older, tobacco & leather flavors, that haven't found in any other bottles.
I did pick up a store pick of the Woodford in northern KY a year ago or so when visiting my parents. Just had a little yesterday in fact. Very good and quite different than the normal one. Not sure I thought it was better though.
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is my top favorite thusfar, so when I saw that the Double Double release was going to be out of my reach, of course that was a let down. So this breakdown of it with a comparison helps my FOMO some, thank you guys.
I’m late to the party but I wanted to offer a suggestion: try Sagamore Double Oaked Rye! It’s a Baltimore distillery and they’re offering is dope! It’s readily available for ~$65 and is amazing! Love your videos and watch so often I feel like we’re drinking buddies!
I'd like to see you guys compare OF 1910 and Woodford DO head to head. I like them both, but have settled on the 1910 as my go to (great tasting, usually available, and not unreasonably priced).
I have a pick of WRDO from Total Wine. It’s outstanding. I agree with the comment that suggested doing a video of bottles you will always replace, because WRDO is definitely one of mine.
Woodford Reserve is one of the best Double Oaks, or even a bourbon in the market for a old fashioned. If you mixed w/ maple syrup, angostura bitters and a dash of a orange bitter and orange zest, you hardly will find a better old fashioned in any bar/restaurant. Will taste like a smooth nectar and will make your day way better! Easy drink!
Another great video. WRDO has been my go-to for several years. Just almost impossible to beat it though, around the same price point, OF 1910 and EC Toasted Barrell are worthy substitutes. BTW, Sam's Club in Champaign, IL had store picks a month or two ago for about $60 compared to $45 for the OG. Haven't been back to check in the last few weeks, but I will do so soon and confirm.
I liked the video where you had Old Forester 1910 vs Woodford Reserve and found they were pretty well even....At a family reunion in April, my cousin will be bringing Woodford and I'm going to bring the Old Forester 1910. We will do a review then.
Love the review, even followed along with the double oaked myself. Greatly appreciate the honest review. BTW, been following your channel for some time and think with you both now in camera is fantastic. Also, appreciate that you don’t do a lot of edits - far more authentic, approachable and personable!
Have you guys tried the Sagamore Double Oaked yet? That and the regular Woodford Double Oaked are my favorites, and its kind of funny too because the Sagamore hits me with such a strong vanilla flavor while the woodford hits me with a strong chocolate flavor. Love them both so much so I just decide if I'm in a vanilla or chocolate mood when I choose my pour.
Sagamore DO just edges out WRDO due to it's higher proof enhancing mouth feel, apart from that they're both excellent, WRDO is super drinkable too, more readily available in these parts. Going thru my first WRDO and will be replenishing this one for sure from here onwards! Yes, the WRDDO probably didn't get a fair review being compared to WRDO lolll , maybe put it in a blind at some point gents! Cheers!
I am on my first bottle of the sagamore DO Rye, initially, when I cracked it, I got pencil eraser on the nose and chaos on the palate. I was really disappointed and put it under my bar in the cabinet on the back. After a while I cracked it again. It opened up really well. And i agree with you. I always said that Elijah Craig toasted barrel is light and marshmallowey, the Old Forester 1910 is dark chocolate, and Woodford DO is milk chocolatey. But I can see the Sagamore DO as being vanilla in tone. Good call.
Peerless double oak is my favorite double oak I’ve had so far, it’s AMAZING. The only better one I’ve had was the Jefferson’s Presidential Select 16, but those are big $$$$
I'm so glad you guys reviewed this. Double oaks are absolutely some of my favorite bourbons, but even I was a little skeptical of the idea of a double double. How much of a good thing is too much?

Yes, the idea of a permanent shelf would be fun to see. Roy @Aquavitae does that for scotch periodically.
Wild turkey 101 being number1 😂
Jack Daniels "Tennessee Tasters" distillery exclusive series has some pretty cool stuff in 375s too. Love Woodford DO. It's HARD to beat!
Just picked up a Double Oaked Store pick from Total Wine and More in Knoxville, TN. It’s a wonderful maple/brown sugar bourbon that’s going to be hard to put down.
Love Woodford Double but it’s $70 locally. Lucky that I’m just a 25 min drive to Ohio where it’s $55 so usually pick one up when I’m across the river. Cheers SLB!
At the beginning of last year we found out we were having a baby boy. Headed to Total Wine in my city Jacksonville, FL to pick up something to celebrate with. They had a Double Oaked store pick. It’s as good as you think it is.
I picked up my first WRDO and it’s so savory and sweet it has a chocolate banana pudding nose reminds me of a flor de Cana 12 year I had
My Costco sells the Double Oaked and I have 2 at home, very good! I just bought the Teeling 15 yr to go along side the W.R, D.O!
I just picked up a bottle of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked in NY $66.99 to included not much of a nose but great flavor. Kind of smells like alcohol & Elmer’s glue 🤪 th taste is absolutely delicious maple syrup, caramel & toffee blended together. I want waffles with this on
It's your videos like this one that give your subscribers confidence in your honesty.
There are a ton of the double oaked picks around louisville so you should have no problem finding one next time you are in town.
Time stamp 0:35-Woodford Double Oaked is A+ to my palette. I can't imagine another that's better.
I was able to buy a local store pick here in Michigan last April of the Woodford double oaked. I need to replace that here soon. Great stuff
The Starlight double oaked is no joke. Tried it on a whim and loved it. Plus its a few proof points higher then the Woodford so bonus points. Also Sagamore double oaked is my super jam
Would be great to see the Peerless double oak in that video as well. Would make a great elevated proof double oak video.
Sagamore DO punches way above its price point, its phenomenal
Sagamore double oak rye is awesome. Would love to see this on SLB.
Agree on all accounts
Yep. Double has to be one of the absolute best drams out there. Especially for the availability and price.
You guys are awesome. I love the honesty in this and all your reviews. Keep up the great vids gentlemen!!!
Great show guys! The standard Woodford DO is so good, when I have it I sometimes wonder why I bother with anything else. If it were more like 100 proof, it'd be perfect!
It’s a go to straight forward bourbon for me .
Just purchased a bottle of Double oak. Here in Canada it cost me $75.00 cdn. Worth every penny.. best I've ever tasted.
Believe it or not, I was able to snag one of these the same day you were able to. The stars aligned and I was nearby.
I cracked it open that night. I've had releases before that have been incredible, but this one didn't hit the usual mark for me. There was a pepper, butter, and funk taste that was leaning towards almost a savory bourbon, which made me raise eyebrows.
Don't give up on the DDO if you see them. They're different with each release! Great video gentlemen!
👊
I was there too! Wild
I enjoy the Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. I have a Double Oaked store pick done by Bayway Liquors in NJ from 2021. Actually, forgot I had it. This video made me go check and there it was stoll unopened. Great work gentlemen.
Their classic double oaked is one of my top 5 favorite bourbons because of how sweet and smooth it is.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Since this video I had to go out and try that double Oakes, and the difference between double oaked and destillers select is night and day, wow…thoroughly enjoying that bottle

Thank you for the review. My favorite of all time is the four roses small batch. Hope to see you guys review that this year 😊
I also love the Woodford Double Oaked, so I'm glad you saved me from picking up he double, double if I happened to run into it. Doesn't sound like an improvement over the Double Oaked.

I love Woodford Double Oaked. One of my favorites. Love the show. Thank you!
I have a total wine 2021 store pick of woodford double oak and it’s so damn good. All the flavors of the regular but just amplified and better
Out here where I live there is a distillery that has a triple oak, and it is amazing
I’m a huge Woodford Double Oaked fan. Good show guys!
You’re right on the picks. We have WRDO barrel selects at our local Total Wine.
I was pouring some samples to trade with a buddy when I found a spare WRDO bottle.. and it is a pick. I didn't realize they were uncommon now or I would have given him a sample of that since he also loves the WRDO.

Just bought and tried Woodford double oaked...it's very very good. One of my new favorites
Just came across your channel. Love Woodford and the double is my daily go to favorite.
One of my local bottle shops has a pick that they sell and it is great. It has some dark cherry notes that I love
Great review as always boys! Woodford Double Oaked and OF 1910 are 2 of my favorite go-to bourbons….dessert in a glass every time! Cheers!
That OF 1910 is amazing
@@neilpowell1641 it sure is!
Yep I prefer the 1910 over the woodford do but both are amazing
@@joshmorgan838 I hear you!
❤ the OF 1910! 👍🏼
I know this is a old video but I got a total wine barrel pick the other day. And yes it's so good
Try Woodford’s double oaked rye if you see one at the distillery. They’re pretty good, worth trying.
WDO Barrel Pick’s are awesome. The one I found may have been my favorite bottle ever. Fond memories.
I love seeing the love for Woodford Double Oaked. I tried it early on and loved it, and have been trying as many other toasted barrel bourbons as I can.

For now!!
a store near us had a pick of double oak last year, it was super sad to finish the bottle. still one of my all time favorite pours of all time
Woodford Reserve DO is our go to bourbon and one of the first bottles we got when starting our bourbon journey 🥃🥃 love the comparison.
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked's my favorite go-to! I always have a backup bottle if not 2! Thank you guys for the awesome content.
Awesome video!!!

I had a double oaked single barrel pick last year I think. I bought 4 bottles and didn’t realize how good it would be. One of my absolute favorites.
We got a Woodford Reserve double oak coco here in SC. Best ever !
Was at the beautiful Woodford Reserve a couple years ago, and the double oak was definitely the standout. Although, I get a cognac note from it. Something I keep around all the time, too.

Agree on the EC18 - I had a 2023 and it was like licking a freshly used table saw…
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is my second favorite bourbon, so I'm glad to see this. I won't be able to get the double double - I can only afford the Double Oaked by the pint - but I sure wish I could taste it.

Thanks for the review
The WRDO is near the top of my list as well, WR is my daily drinker .
I did a barrel pick at Woodford the first week of December it's going to be about 8 more weeks before we get our bottles
Need to try the 13th Colony DO!!
Another honest and thoughtful review. Love you guys 👊
Even before I was really “into” bourbon, double oaked was always a favorite. Interesting to see this Double Double release. Would be interested to try a pour, but don’t think I’d try to find a bottle
Hard to beat WR DO. Thanks for the honest and respectful reviews!
Great comparison and analysis thanks!
Woodford Double Oaked is the one bourbon that I always have a bottle of on hand and the one I drink the most
Just bought this at Costco last night!
Woodford Double Oak is one of my all time favorites! You should try the Malt whiskey they have started making - it’s like a snickers in a bottle IMO.
Cool video idea for you all would be doing a whole lineup of Woodford Reserve (wheat, malt, rye, etc.)
Woodford Reserve is what made me fall in love with bourbon. The Double Oaked version just increased that love for me. Such good products. Always on hand at my house.
Great comparison. It’s always hard to beat the favorites.
Just paid 60 for Woodford dbl oak yesterday for $60
It has been out of stock for months
Hate the price increase but love the juice
My Brother picked me up a bottle of the WDO, at the distillery, about five years ago. It was amazing, way better than any of the off the shelf bottles. It seemed much older, tobacco & leather flavors, that haven't found in any other bottles.
If you can grab it, get a lucky 7 holiday toast as it is double oak. Very great and complex drink.
I cant get enough of the regular double oak its my favorite bourbon for a daily. Close second is OF 1910
I did pick up a store pick of the Woodford in northern KY a year ago or so when visiting my parents. Just had a little yesterday in fact. Very good and quite different than the normal one. Not sure I thought it was better though.
Woodford Reserve Double Oaked is my top favorite thusfar, so when I saw that the Double Double release was going to be out of my reach, of course that was a let down. So this breakdown of it with a comparison helps my FOMO some, thank you guys.
Thanks for trying this one. It goes to show that you can overdo a good thing. TonyB
Great taste test! I too enjoy the Woodford Reserve Double Oak. Keep ‘em coming guys! Always good stuff. 👍🏻👏👏❤️
I’m late to the party but I wanted to offer a suggestion: try Sagamore Double Oaked Rye! It’s a Baltimore distillery and they’re offering is dope! It’s readily available for ~$65 and is amazing! Love your videos and watch so often I feel like we’re drinking buddies!
That is an amazing rye!
I'd like to see you guys compare OF 1910 and Woodford DO head to head. I like them both, but have settled on the 1910 as my go to (great tasting, usually available, and not unreasonably priced).
Agreed
I have the 2022 EC18 and it is wonderful.
I bought a bottle just after Christmas and it's good. Not my top five but a great bottle to have on hand.
I have a pick of WRDO from Total Wine. It’s outstanding. I agree with the comment that suggested doing a video of bottles you will always replace, because WRDO is definitely one of mine.
My wife and I love the show but do not get to interact very often using our firestick on the tv , thanks for the great content!!
Cool! Nice comparison test!
Good knowledge share. Much appreciated.
Great review guys. Thanks
Woodford Reserve is one of the best Double Oaks, or even a bourbon in the market for a old fashioned.

Another great video wish I lived closer to Kentucky! Lol idea for a possible Super Bowl video review terry bradshaws bourbon, thanks for everything
I liked the video where you had Old Forester 1910 vs Woodford Reserve and found they were pretty well even....At a family reunion in April, my cousin will be bringing Woodford and I'm going to bring the Old Forester 1910. We will do a review then.

I've gotta put in a vote for Sagamore Double. So amazingly complex!
Great job and nice review. The Woodford Double is one of my favs as well. Hard to compare against as well.
