Greg
Greg,
Can’t really tell how it’s different from regular Knob Creek, not a bad bourbon but can’t really hang with the higher rated bourbons.
 
Michael
Michael,
A little harsh. Use for mahattans
 
Steve
Steve,
Good hang out bourbon, but has a strong flavor and an unrefined finish.

Nice smooth and great taste. Not as much going on as Old Forester, but it's just a great smooth taste that I can sip in all day.

Hints of oak.

Josh,
Toffee and baking spices.
 
Jonathon
Jonathon,
I love Knob Creek for it's overall smoothness and finish. I don't get an overly big bite like some other bourbons. And for the price, definitely worth it!
 
Andrew
Andrew,
This has been my everyday for years. I like it with a splash of water as my palate has drifted sweeter for drinking neat, but definitely staying in the rotation.
 
Brian
Brian,
This is a nice everyday bourbon. Not as smooth as one might expect for a 9 year. Straightforward taste with no unusual notes.

Great to sip
 
Burton
Burton,
Allow it to open in your glass and it will release a very nice aroma of candy-caramel-chocolate. Medium thick texture, which feels comfy in the mouth. Nose beats the palate, but welcome vanilla and caramel flavors. Generous finish. A definite buy.
 
James
James,
Taste like old dirty leather

James,

Ditto. This was the first decent bourbon I ever had and it was a game changer.

Classic spicy

Very good taste. 120 proof
 
Jeff
Jeff,
Very smooth, nice sipper on a big square cube. VERY slight escabeche taste on the front of the palette.......rear finishes strong
 
guest
guest,
This one was pretty strong. Enjoyed it, but also a bit too oily.
 
Clayton
Clayton,
This is one of the better bourbons I’ve had in the last couple of years. Has a sweet aroma and mixes very well with water or ginger ale for a sweeter drink. Will buy again
 
guest
guest,
Good but not great. There is an earthy aftertaste that I just cannot get with. Other than that it is probably a really great choice for a frequent sipper.

Aaron
Aaron,
Their regular flagship bourbon says Small Batch, 50%, and 9 yr...what is different about this for the extra $10?
