Versailles, KY (December 3, 2024) — Just in time for the holiday season, Woodford Reserve and Compartés are debuting a limited-edition chocolate bar infused with Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon. The bar, with hints of orange, is an homage to the Old Fashioned cocktail.
Compartés chocolatier Jonathan Grahm teamed up with Woodford Reserve Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall to craft this extraordinary new decadent confection.
Infused with Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon, this bar offers a harmonious blend of rich butterscotch, smooth vanilla, and sweet caramel notes, delivering an elevated tasting experience.
“The marriage of Double Oaked Bourbon, with its sweet flavor profile, and dark chocolate are a perfect pairing,” McCall said. This is a delightful gift for the holidays.”
Handcrafted in Beverly Hills, the chocolate bar features a stunning packaging design inspired by an Old Fashioned cocktail, artfully highlighting the bar's rich orange notes.
“Woodford Reserve’s flavors pair perfectly with our chocolate, so partnering again was a very easy decision,” said Grahm. “I truly believe there’s no bourbon and chocolate more in sync than the rich, complex notes of Double Oaked Bourbon and the ultra-luxurious flavors of Compartés.”
This is the second year for the Woodford Reserve x Compartes collaboration. Last year, the two brands created a four-piece box of chocolates that highlighted the flavors of Double Oaked Bourbon.
The limited-edition Compartés x Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Chocolate bar is available for the suggested manufacturer’s retail price of $9.95 exclusively at fine retailers nationwide. It is also available at the Woodford Reserve Distillery and can be shipped nationwide via shop.woodfordreserve.com.
