  1. When the American oak came out I purchased it. Similar notes. Little young and was thin. I really didn't like it. It remains full except for my first pour. Could be considered a drain pour.

  2. So I don't know much about this bottle but it might be a blend of high and low rye Jim beam that was re-barreled with a chain of French oak staves. The American oak can be found for $40 and can be used to make a good old fashioned.

  3. I watch reviews just to see if I'm missing something. Early in my bourbon journey, I bought a Gem of Kentucky, and it didn't leave me with much. Seems like the 2xO brand is just reaching. Cheers

  4. Appreciate the review. I haven’t tried this in awhile but I remember liking it. It is thin but expected at 92 prf. I am a French Oak fan so that might be it.

  5. Unfamiliar with this. Probably wouldn't bite if I see it. As far as a French oak whiskey, I'll stick with the MM46 version. Cheers!

  6. I believe the rumor is 2XO is using sourced Barton 1792 distillate. 2XO has openly said that they use oak chains to get the double oaked flavor profile.
    Enjoyed the review!

  7. Wow. I wasn't blown away by this one but I wasn't disappointed like you. I think it is noticeabley better than its American Oak counterpart. However, I have always liked French Oak releases from other distilleries a whole lot (e.g. MM46), so that may be why. The 2XO American Oak was a disappointment for me but I am not mad at this one for around $45.
