Oaky, I taste a lot of vanilla. It goes down really easy and is overall very sweet.

This is an affordable and highly drinkable Rye. Spice and vanilla, caramel and oak. Worth a try.

High proof but smooth with all the spicey rye goodness you would expect. And a nice touch of vanilla and baking spices on the finish.

Very nice taste.

Knob Creek can do no wrong in my book. This rye is great. Soft on the nose, spicy up front, and has a beautiful finish. Love it!
 
Mike
Mike,
Not a huge Rye fan when neat, but this is a very good one in cocktails.
 
Sean
Sean,
I find this a good mixer, adds good flavor without overpowering, but not something I'd pour in my tin cup and sip on.
 
Nick
Nick,
Solid affordable Rye, gets the job done for cocktails, neat, or with a rock.
 
Laura
Laura,
Knob Creek, in general, is our go-to "out at a place that doesn't have a lot of good choices but has this" drinking bourbon. The rye is about the same. Drinkable and not too expensive.

actually it is Cask strength Barreled in 2009 at 59.8%. good lasting heat that warms the pallet. Good barrel taste. good sitting sipping bourbon. really enjoy this one.
