Tasting note
Bright medium copper; aromas of toffee, honey, dried apricots and candied ginger; warming alcohol, medium body, with a finish of caramel and spice.
Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve is carefully hand selected, barrel-by-barrel, to bring you a robust, mature flavor. It's full bodied with a smoky aroma and while filled with near barrel strength heat, it is extraordinarily smooth and nuanced. It has even more of the rich wood and vanilla notes that make Knob Creek the standout bourbon that it is. Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve is long, full and easy to sip whether you choose to enjoy it neat, on the rocks or cut with distilled water.
This new single barrel expression of Knob Creek tastes very similar to the original "small batch" Knob Creek. It is slightly drier, more elegant, light and sophisticated on the palate. Because no two barrels are exactly alike, this is a stylish, big, broad-shouldered bourbon with a thick, sweet foundation of nutty toffee, pot still rum and maple syrup. Peppered with spice — cinnamon, but also vanilla, evergreen and dried fruit, Knob Creek Single Barrel has a dry, warming and resinous finish. 94 pts Malt Advocate
