It is very approachable and perfect for cocktails.

French Oak is the second blend in the Oak Series. Dixon uses an innovative double oak technique where he inserts chains of charred French oak into barrels with a moderate rye bourbon mash bill of 18%. Dixon will match the profile of each batch for consistent taste and character, providing an everyday offering. French Oak moves from sweet, rich caramel on the front, to savory notes of coffee and cinnamon in the middle, finishing with a mild peppery spice. It is very approachable and perfect for cocktails.

The Vinyl Blend is the sixth release in the ICON SERIES, a series of limited time, small batch blends. Each blend is different and bears its own name and symbol, inspired by something in Master Blender, Dixon Dedman’s life. The Vinyl Blend is an ode to Dixon’s love for music, played on a classic vinyl while enjoying a glass of 2XO neat. The Vinyl Blend lands smooth and sweet on the mid-palate leading into a long, viscous peppery finish.

The Gem of Kentucky is the premiere offering from 2XO. The only double barreled single barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey on the market. The barrels are exclusively selected by Dixon from his double barreled stocks of the high rye bourbon mash bill (35% rye) that spend a year in new charred oak barrels before bottling. It is a full-bodied, full-flavored expression that leans on Dixon’s unique double-barreling process for a richer and more viscous mouthfeel. The differing char levels on the secondary barreling allow complex flavors to develop and balance the spicy finish from the high rye distillate.
