LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

“

One of the best values in the bourbon world. By restoring its 9-year age statement, Knob Creek has reclaimed its status as the definitive powerhouse bourbon—one that manages to be both muscular and remarkably smooth.

The Library Note

Created in 1992 by Booker Noe, Knob Creek was designed to bring back the flavor of whiskey as it was before it was lightened by mass production. Named after a small creek that ran through Abraham Lincoln's childhood home, it is a testament to the belief that the best bourbon is made with a clear vision and enough time to let the oak speak.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Rich and sweet. Heavy notes of toasted nuts, maple sugar, and damp oak grain.

THE PALATE

Full-bodied and assertive. Layers of dark caramel, nutmeg, and peppery oak spice are balanced by a subtle cherry-cola sweetness.

THE FINISH

Long, warm, and glowing with a lingering tobacco smoke and brown sugar richness.

Sensory Profile

THE PERFECT SERVE

The 'Knob Creek Old Fashioned': 2 oz Knob Creek, 1 barspoon maple syrup, 2 dashes Angostura bitters. Its high 100-proof strength ensures the whiskey's character isn't lost to the sugar and dilution.

EXPERT TECHNIQUE

A high-corn mash bill aged for 9 years in Level 4 'alligator charred' barrels, bottled at 100 proof to maintain its structural integrity and depth.
