Knob Creek is a small batch bourbon produced by Jim Beam, distilled in a more traditional style and aged 9 nine years. It is named for the area in Kentucky where Abraham Lincoln grew up, it is said that the creek nearly claimed his life when he was swimming.
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.
I love it! I drink all my spirits neat and this one is bright, complex, with depth and lasting finish. I recently compared it twice with an earlier favorite, Four Roses Single Barrel, and both times I found Knob Creek 9 year small batch 100 proof bourbon to be clearly superior. I just another bottle and it doesn't disappoint.
Felt it was quite rough, lacking refinement and the smoothness I expect from an aged whiskey
Bright flavorull spice,some vanilla. Bought at a Albertsons grocery store for $27. Not quite as good as my favorite Russell's reserve 10 yr but when it's $27 it's a treat. I go for the under $40 bourbons and there are many that are as good as the more expensive one. Old grand dad 114 and my Russell's reserve I mentioned just to name a few
Knob Creek 9 Year is a solid top-10 bourbon for me, sipping some now. I'm still relatively new to bourbon and I'm constantly trying to expand my tasting experience while keeping the price under $50 a bottle. Tasted the Knob Creek 100 proof, liked it though it was not a top-10 bourbon for me. Then I found the Knob Creek 9 Year on sale and, partly due to the 120 proof, it rocketed into my top-10. It packs a punch of flavor and alcohol. This bourbon sits in my (under $50) top-10 along with Four Roses Single Barrel, Old Grand Dad 114 (bit of a surprise) and Buffalo Trace.
I usually buy bourbon at around the $30 point but I found it on sale at CVS pharmacy for $27.From the first sip to the finish I knew I found a bourbon I really enjoy. The flavors of oak vanilla and spice were there from first sip through the finish. For a 100 proof drink it was soft and for me that's a good thing.I will pay the going price on occasion but in the meantime at $27 I'm gonna stock up.We all look for different flavors and such in our bourbon and knob Creek has what I look for. So if you like that spice, vanilla and oak if you get it on sale or normal price this guy says you can't go wrong!
