Woodford Reserve Double Oaked – 70cl
An innovative approach to twice-barrelled bourbon creates the rich and colourful flavour of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Uniquely matured in separate, charred oak barrels – the second barrel deeply toasted before a light charring – extracts additional soft, sweet oak character.
On the nose, Woodford Double Oak gives rich notes of dark fruit, caramel, sharp honey, chocolate, marzipan, and toasted oak. Full bodied in taste, drinkers are met with a delicious mix of vanilla, dark caramel, hazelnut, apple and spices. With a long and creamy finish, lingering hints of honeyed apple also pull through.
Perfect for: Those looking for a fuller flavoured tipple to raise with their dad this Father’s Day

Woodford Reserve Malt – 70cl
Unlike a typical 100% malt whiskey, Woodford Reserve is a Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey crafted from 51% malt and aged in new charred oak barrels, making it the malt whiskey of choice for bourbon drinkers.
Part of the Waitrose No.1 Range, this flavourful and complex bourbon further amplifies the iconic characteristics found in the original Woodford Reserve. On the nose, Woodford Reserve Malt brings soft, nutty aromas drizzled with light caramel and finishes with sweet chocolate flavours.
Perfect for: Malt whiskey lovers who are looking to celebrate with something a little different this Father’s Day
