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.
Rich caramel, bright ginger and lingering menthol hints, with more herbaceous touches developing with the robust rye notes. A good core of oak spice, too.
Traditional rye spiciness, rich and mouth-coating, but not as overpowering as some other rye whiskey. Instead, there's more development of the vanilla, brown sugar and soft butter notes.
Drying oak, white pepper and rye spice last on the finish.

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.
Best i have had sweet smooth spice. Not overwhelming at all. My favorite always have on my shelf
Very good
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!
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.
