Knob Creek
9 Year Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Kentucky, USA
Small batch 100 proof. Saved a sip to review. Evergreen (blue spruce) dough, caramel covered almonds, nutty as hell, baklava thing going with the pistachio and honey, maple and walnut coming in a close second. Banana bread, acorn squash, cinnamon and baked sugar, vanilla icing and a return to pine, in a crystalline sap way. Life is a box of bourbon candies. The palate starts hot, with a wooden paddle waiting for gluttonous candy fiends. Krampus whips your tongue with cinnamon oils and a cedar rush. Vanilla-oak spikes pierce your palate from all angles. Oatmeal, maple, raw wheat, brown sugar and sparks! Hot, holy moley! This one tells you to dance, and you durn well better! #knobcreek #caskstrength #bourbon

Three extra meetings after school, a teacher sandwich on the run, and teaching 24 5th graders about the digestive system... Bourbon Manhattan...priceless.

Very sweet. Woodford reserve is much brighter and less sweet.

One of my favorites. Spicy with a warm toasted maple butter finish.

Yum! A little too fiery for me unless I have it with a splash of water
