OAK SERIES
American Oak is the first blend in the Oak Series, an innovative double oak technique where Dixon introduces additional charred oak to barrels with a moderate amount of rye in the mashbill. Dixon will match the profile of each batch for consistent taste and character, providing an everyday offering. American Oak moves from sweet, rich butterscotch on the front, to savory roasted nutty notes in the middle, finishing with a lingering mild spice. It is very approachable and perfect for cocktails.

2XO is from renowned American whiskey blender Dixon Dedman (Dixon Dedman is the man behind Kentucky Owl). The name "2XO" stands for "Two Times Oak," reflecting Dedman's innovative blending process that involves additional oak exposure to enhance flavor complexity.

New version of Johnnie Walker Black

Johnnie Walker Black Cask Edition Blended Scotch Whisky is a richer, more indulgent take on the iconic Black Label, crafted with a higher proportion of whisky matured in first-fill American oak casks and finished in deeply charred barrels for amplified depth and intensity. Bottled at 40% ABV, it delivers a fuller, rounder profile where notes of creamy toffee, vanilla, and baked apple are layered with warming spice and a subtle thread of smoke. The extra cask influence enhances both sweetness and structure, creating a smooth yet boldly flavored Scotch that bridges classic Blended Scotch character with a more modern, oak-driven richness—ideal for sipping neat or elevating a premium highball.

More about the Old Carter Bourbon...

This was made for Missouri only!

Jeb Dunnuck recently rated some batches of Old Carter - he rated them all in the high 90s!! 

Here is a review of one (not our batch)

A Carter club exclusive, the Bourbon 1-CFB comes from two 11-year-old barrels, with one barrel double-barreled. It hits 123.5 proof and brings a touch more intensity compared to the CA-4 release, with bright citrus and orange as well as toffee, maple, warm spices, and exotic hardwoods. It's beautifully complex aromatically. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, has a deep, layered, building style, nicely checks its alcohol, and offers a gorgeous finish. The CA-4 release is more seductive and understated, where this brings everything up a level. Both are brilliant Bourbons that warrant small sips over an evening as well as a big, three-fingered pour.

Rated 99/100 Jeb Dunnuck
