2XO Oak Series American Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon 750mL is a refined double oak Kentucky straight bourbon from 2XO Whiskey, founded by master blender Dixon Dedman. Part of the Oak Series, this expression showcases the brand’s signature “Two Times Oak” process, where carefully selected bourbons are re-barreled into new charred American oak to amplify richness, sweetness, and complexity.

Rich and balanced, it opens with aromas of caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, followed by layers of brown sugar, baking spice, honey, and subtle dark fruit. The additional time in fresh American oak enhances depth and texture while maintaining smoothness, leading to a long, warm finish with lingering sweetness, spice, and oak richness. It is a versatile bourbon that highlights the impact of oak in a polished and approachable way.
