A contemporary twist on historic blending traditions.

French Oak is the latest release from Dixon Dedman’s award-winning 2XO – Two Times Oak – brand. Dixon uses an innovative double oak technique where he inserts chains of charred French oak into barrels with a moderate amount of rye in the mash bill (18%). Dixon intensifies the maturation process by creating more surface area for the liquid in the barrels to interact with the chains of charred French oak, elevating the combination of flavors.

French Oak will become an always available, ongoing sku with complex notes of caramel, roasted nuts, coffee, and light pepper spice.
