Elevate your whiskey collection with the highly exclusive Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon 'Topflight Series S5B1'. Hand-selected for its extraordinary and unique flavor profile, this single barrel expression is a magnificent showcase of Woodford Reserve's innovative maturation process. Offering a completely unique, fruit-forward take on a beloved classic, this highly allocated bottle is an absolute must-have for any serious bourbon enthusiast shopping at Nestor Liquor.
The magic of this expression lies in its signature double-barreling process. After initially maturing in custom-crafted new white oak, the bourbon is transferred to a second, heavily toasted and lightly charred barrel to extract incredible depths of sweet oak character. However, this specific 'Topflight Series S5B1' barrel was chosen for its remarkable departure from the standard profile. Bottled at Woodford's signature 90.4 Proof (45.2% ABV), it beautifully balances the deep, decadent richness of the second barrel with an incredibly vibrant rush of bright citrus and luscious peach.
