Fireside Flavors Meet Fine Bourbon in the Latest Compartés Collaboration – Woodford Reserve S’mores Chocolate Bar

VERSAILLES, Ky.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–January 12, 2026–Woodford Reserve and Compartés are bringing campfire nostalgia to their latest collaboration: a limited-edition S’mores Chocolate Bar infused with Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon. The release marks the third year of the partnership between Master Distiller Elizabeth McCall and chocolatier Jonathan Grahm.

Fireside Flavors Meet Fine Bourbon

This winter, Woodford Reserve is leaning into the season —starting with Double Oaked Bourbon’s signature notes of vanilla, butterscotch, and caramel, now layered into a S’mores Chocolate Bar alongside toasted marshmallow, graham cracker, and rich dark chocolate. The result is a confection that evokes a cozy winter evening spent fireside. Alongside the chocolate bar, Woodford Reserve introduces the S’more Old Fashioned — a cocktail built for the season.

• 1.5 oz Woodford Reserve Double Oaked
• 1 oz Light Brown Sugar Simple Syrup
• 2 dashes Chocolate Bitters

Master Distiller and Chocolatier Comments

“Double Oaked is born from fire—two charred oak barrels creating its distinctive warmth and depth,” said Elizabeth McCall, Master Distiller, Woodford Reserve. “The flavors of Double Oaked lend themselves naturally to a S’mores experience—whether you’re savoring the chocolate bar or sipping the S’more Old Fashioned. We wanted to create something that brings people together.”

“Woodford Reserve has always been a stellar partner, and continuing to work with them allows us to create new ways for consumers to experience the magic of bourbon and chocolate,” said Jonathan Grahm, Founder and Chocolatier, Compartés. “We’re grateful for the partnership and proud of what we’ve built together.”
