Double Oak was born of a happy accident, when a leaky barrel forcedthe distilling team to transfer its liquid to a new charred oak barrel. Exposureto that second barrel gave the whiskey amped-up flavors and lots more complexity.This is a bourbon that has gone into overdrive, and it handles the road just fine. Its syrupy sweet texture is checked by the oak influence, and the palate opens to flavors aplenty—dried peaches, warm apple pie, Christmas spice, gingerbread, raisin cake, chocolate, and pumpkin purée. Perfect as a holiday warmer or a backyard barbecue sipper, this is a whiskey for all seasons. 93 Points & Number 8 in the 2021 Top 20, Whisky Advocate 2021
