What's in a name? Knob Creek 9 Year Old whiskey is called whiskey because it's produced in America. Were it from Scotland it would be spelled Knob Creek 9 Year Old whisky, rather than whiskey.
The nose is quite spicy and sweet. There are notes of melted salty butter on granary toast, there are notes of toasty oak and a touch of rye with caramel sweetness. The palate is quite peppy and full. There are notes of candy floss and nut oil, a touch of spice and dark chocolate, a little spice and charred oak. The finish is long with a touch of dryness, there are notes of nut oils and vanilla spice. ...more

Flawless.
Really is my favourite bourbon. Rich, smooth, and the vanilla finish is absolutely sublime. I'll stick with this for years to come.
Perfect
As posted above, this is also my favorit bourbon. A truly smooth, sweet, and full bourbon, this is my all-time go-to.
Very Good
I like this big bourbon. A lot going on. I would like it even more if the oak was toned down slightly.
Not too Sweet
Just the way I like it.
