Why Pursuit United Double Oaked Bourbon Stands Out
Pursuit United Double Oaked Bourbon is a premium bourbon whiskey from Kentucky, built on Pursuit Spirits’ blended straight bourbon foundation and finished with a second oak treatment for extra depth. After initial maturation, this bourbon goes through a secondary oak finishing process using seasoned French oak staves that have been air-dried and toasted—adding sweetness, texture, and a more layered oak character without losing balance.
Bottled at 108 proof (54% ABV) in a 700mL format, Pursuit United Double Oaked Bourbon is made for bourbon drinkers who want concentration and richness, with classic notes turned up: caramel, vanilla, and warm oak.
Process & Profile
The double oaking approach is designed to amplify classic bourbon flavors—like caramel and vanilla—while keeping the underlying structure of the blend intact. The seasoned, toasted French oak staves bring a deeper, dessert-leaning tone and a more velvety mouthfeel, rather than a harsh, overly woody finish.
What You’ll Notice on the Shelf
The bottle has a clean, modern look with bold “Pursuit” lettering across the glass and a crisp label that highlights “United” and “Double Oaked Bourbon.” The whiskey’s deep amber color shows off right away, giving it a premium, bar-cart-ready presence that also makes it a strong gift pick—especially with engraving available.
