2XO Rapper’s Delight The Hip-Hop Blend is a Kentucky-sourced bourbon blended by Dixon Dedman in partnership with Prestige Beverage Group and hip-hop group The Sugarhill Gang. It combines two proprietary mash bills, with a 35% high-rye bourbon comprising 90% of the blend and an 18% moderate-rye bourbon making up the remaining 10%. The high-rye component is double-barreled in new No. 3 and No. 4 charred oak barrels for nine to 12 months. Bottled at 104 proof (52% ABV), it retails for $79.99.
