About this bottle

The Kiawah Blend is the fourth release for the 2XO's Icon Series. Like the others, this one was blended by American whiskey blender Dixon Dedman using a double-barrel process. For this bottling, two bourbon mash bills were used — one with a high-rye 35% recipe and another with a moderate 18% rye recipe. Dedman double-barreled the high-rye recipe into new, charred oak barrels (#3 and #4 char levels) for 9 months to a year. Available nationwide beginning April 2024. (SRP $99.99)

palatable 4.3

Elegant, deep vanilla notes and a wonderful mouthfeel (yes, it is smooth for the 52 abv) make this my favorite 2xo yet...
