2XO Whiskey launched its Oak Series to share everyday expressions at affordable prices with a focus on consistency, and 2XO Whiskey French Oak is the latest offering to join the lineup.
The simply named French Oak is an everyday blend that builds on the success of previous releases like American Oak. "Adding a French Oak version of the Oak Series is a natural progression," said brand founder and renowned blender Dixon Dedman, "It is a great complement to the traditional vanilla to peppery notes found in American Oak because French Oak lends itself to more baking spice and richer, savory, and caramel notes." With this launch, 2XO Whiskey emphasizes how maturation can impart and build unique flavor profiles when beginning with the same base.
