Undeniably big, full flavor that strikes your senses with a maple sugar aroma, distinctive sweetness and a rich, woody, caramel flavor. Bottled at 100 proof, it's aged in the deepest charred American Oak barrels. Make a bolder classic cocktail or sip it neat.
Knob Creek Description
When it comes to making Knob Creek Bourbon, there's a lot of waiting but hardly any sitting around. While each barrel patiently ages in white oak, our distillers continue to raise the standards, fulfilling their commitment to full flavor. The result? An unflinching balance of deep, pre-Prohibition-style bourbon with a robust oak taste, complemented with hints of smooth vanilla and layered caramel.
Daniel Hernandez-Brun for K&D: 92 Points
The powerful, robust Knob Creek 9 Year is excellent. It's notes of peanut brittle, candied cherry, and maple are profound, but clearly delineated, linear, and focused. Leather and tobacco linger at the finish, which doesn't outstay its welcome. Makes a mean Old Fashioned. Miles better than I remembered.
Whisky Advocate: 92 Points
Candied cherries and oranges on the nose, along with a note of fresh blueberry and a blast of cinnamon. Smooth on the front palate, with flavors of cinnamon gum, cooked dark berries, old leather, and dunnage warehouse floor. Water brings out chocolate and vanilla, as well as dark fruits and white pepper. A lengthy finish offers savory herbs, bitter chocolate, fresh coffee beans, and roasted walnuts. Great texture and well-balanced throughout.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
Delicious but fiery, this nine-year-old small-batch Bourbon offers deep toffee aromatics and bold flavor. On the palate, look for relatively dry flavors: leather, cedar, dried orange peel. A splash of water softens the profile to bring out more vanilla, honey, even a touch of chocolate.
