Double Wood
Our Double Wood expression is a reflection of the impact of rich, soft oak on the pure Bakery Hill unpeated new make spirit. Our Classic spirit is initially matured for up to 7 years in American Oak Ex-Bourbon barrels from Jack Daniels, before being transferred to a virgin French Oak ex-wine barrel, shaved back to bare wood, and then given a light toast to highlight the oak itself – rather than any of the previous contents of the barrel. Single barrel maturation to ensure you get every ounce of flavour without blending. The interplay between both American and French Oak styles ensure a unique richness of flavour alongside fresh vibrancy of the spirit. If you enjoy a rich multi dimensional whisky which tastes like Christmas in a glass - the Double Wood is the Bakery Hill whisky for you.
The Double Wood is the whisky to appeal to taste buds of both newcomers to the pleasures of Single Malt whisky and connoisseurs alike.
