About The Distillery: When the very first bottle was released, our mission was to restore whiskey to the way it was meant to be: patiently aged and full-flavored. This commitment not only helped Knob Creek overturn all the softer, milder, whiskeys on the market, it was also a major step toward making the small-batch whiskey movement what it is today. We don't age our bourbon nine years and longer because we're required to. We do it because the extra time and effort are well worth it. Under the care of seventh-generation distillers, minutes become days, the days become years and the years become bourbon. Refined enough to sip, yet strong enough to carry a cocktail. We call it Knob Creek. Nose: A lot of wood on the nose. Oak with an herby and rosemary vanilla. Palate: Bold and herby. Dried spice with rosemary, pepper and hints of cherry. Finish: Lingering. Baking spice, cherry, cinnamon and pomegranate.
