“As good as you'd expect from Knob Creek. From what I've learned through Beam/Suntory, the mash bill is 55% rye, 35% corn, 10% malt. The final bottling is blended from spirit aged in new charred oak for five to nine years, and is bottled at 50% ABV. Plenty of wood and spice, and some rich toffee notes to round out what's really a full-flavor whiskey. At 100 proof, there's no shortage of fierce alcohol heat, either. It's a brilliant rye, but to my palate, has some distinct influences from its famous Bourbon cousin.”

Description

Knob Creek Rye boasts a high corn mash bill, bringing with it a flavour profile that strikes a wonderful balance between your classic, spicy rye whiskeys and your sweeter, vanilla-fuelled high-rye-content bourbons. Matured for seven years in deeply charred barrels and bottled at a robust 50% ABV (100 proof), it'll shine in the likes of a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned, or simply sip it neat and appreciate its layers of vanilla, browned butter, and spice.

The best rye whiskey under 50$

It is an underestimated whiskey. Sweet, with hints of caramel and chocolate, it is easy to drink more than you should. For me to appreciate neat. I do not want to stay without anymore.

Underrated.

Overlooked. Better than Rittenhouse BIB and cheaper than Pikesville (thanks Marussia for the price hike on that one) and Michters (Woodford?) BP rye. Worth a punt!

Good stuff

I don't know any specifics, but I know this has a very rich rye flavor. That coupled with a low price makes this my go-to for an Old Fashioned.
