2XO The Tribute Blend is the third small batch blend release in the ongoing Icon Series from 2XO, Two Times Oak.
The Icon series is the heart of 2XO. They are a series of limited time offers, small batch releases. Each blend is different and bares it own name and symbol, inspired by something in my life. The Tribute Blend, coming this fall, is a nod to Dixon's parents and the path they paved for him.
He has access to two proprietary Kentucky Straight Bourbon Mash bills: one is a low rye bourbon mash bill, about 16%-18%, and one is a high rye bourbon mash bill at 35%
2XO The Tribute Blend is are double barrels 6+ year old of the high rye bourbon mash bill into new charred oak barrels in both #3 and #4 char levels for 9 months to a year.
This gives Dixon Dedman 4 components to blend with- a low rye bourbon, a high rye bourbon, a double-barreled high rye bourbon #3 char, and a double-barreled high rye #4 char.
