2026 SFWSC GOLD MEDAL ANNOUNCEMENT
Sabbatical Strikes Gold at the 2026 San Francisco World Spirits Competition!
Our Double Oaked Whiskey has officially been awarded a Gold Medal at the 2026 San Francisco World Spirits Competition (SFWSC)! 🌟
The SFWSC is considered to be the most influential and prestigious spirits competition in the world with over 4,000 entries reviewed in a blind-tasting process conducted by a panel of spirits-industry experts. A Gold Medal signifies a spirit that is near the pinnacle of achievement in its category, setting the standard for all others of its type.
Batch No. 1 Debut Release!
We flipped the script on the traditional double oak process by first aging our bourbon mashbill whiskey in a once used ex-bourbon barrel followed by an extensive finishing in a charred new American oak cask. This small batch releases features an exclusive selection of Sabbatical whiskey aged over 7 years with a novel approach to barrel maturation to create a uniquely nuanced expression that’s unlike any other.
Forget what you know and discover how a new take on Double Oak has crafted a superbly bold yet delicate whiskey that goes down easy. Enjoy your Sabbatical.
49% Alc / Vol | 98 Proof | 750ML
Aged: 7+ Years
Total bottles in batch: 588
GOLD MEDAL WINNER, 2026 SAN FRANCISCO WORLD SPIRITS COMPETITION
“Products awarded a Gold medal are exceptional. They are near the pinnacle of achievement in their particular category. They are products that set the standard for all others of their type.”

Tasting Notes
Aroma: Warm vanilla, baked caramel, toasted oak, light baking spice, and subtle dried fruit.
Palate: Creamy caramel and butterscotch up front, deep toffee and dark chocolate mid-palate, with toasted oak, nutmeg, and baking spice accents.
Finish: Long, smooth, and slightly lingering with oak tannins, caramelized sugar, and a gentle spice warmth.
Experience this singular expression aged in two separate American oak barrels for yourself by claiming a handmade bottle from the debut batch!
