Woodford Reserve Double Oaked (Signature Wine & Spirits)

This won Best Store Pick in one of my online whiskey groups. Glass: Glencairn, rested 15 minutes. Color: Medium amber. Nose: This is amazing. It's chocolate brownies with nuts on top. Palate: Oak and leather, with clove and some mild cinnamon. Definitely more dry than spicy. Finish: Medium heat but short length. This is slightly disappointing. Splash: No new flavors are revealed. Overall: 8.5/10 - A longer finish would make this a solid 9/10, but Woorford charges a lot more for those. This may not be my favorite pour of the year, but I can see how it won that award. I’m looking forward to trying it in a cocktail.
