Nose: Rich caramel and vanilla dominate, followed by toasted oak and hints of dried fruit. A subtle spiciness emerges, reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg. There's a touch of maple syrup sweetness and a faint nuttiness in the background.
Palate: Full-bodied and robust. Caramel and vanilla carry through from the nose, joined by flavors of roasted nuts and charred oak. A peppery spice builds, balanced by notes of dark chocolate and leather. As it develops, hints of ripe stone fruits and a subtle tobacco character emerge.
Finish: Long and warming. The spice lingers, accompanied by oak tannins and a pleasant dryness. Caramel and vanilla sweetness fade slowly, leaving behind a satisfying warmth with traces of toasted nuts and dark fruit.
Knob Creek 9 Year Old Bourbon is crafted using a time-honored process that includes a unique mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley, followed by distillation in copper stills and aging for a full 9 years in new, charred American oak barrels. What sets this bourbon apart is its extended aging period, which is significantly longer than the industry standard, allowing the whiskey to develop a rich complexity and depth of flavor while interacting with the wood over nearly a decade.
