About the Whiskey:
Full proof for full flavor. An honest Pre-Prohibition style bourbon. - 100 Proof

95 Points - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2022

"Intensely complex on the nose with refreshing menthol, citrus and vanilla pods. Toasted grains and coconut layered with dark sugars and a rye freshness deliver a beautifully balanced, spiced finish."

95 Points & #2 TOP 20 OF 2020 - Whisky Advocate:
"Until now, most Knob Creek has been bottled at 9 years of age or younger for good reason: There is no guarantee that bourbon will taste good after a dozen years in the barrel let alone great. This one is richly complex from the start: York Peppermint Pattie, raisins, baking spice, dark chocolate-covered cherries, iced tea, and tobacco barn appear on the nose, followed by a chewy, full palate laden with cinnamon, allspice, and ginger, and perfectly balanced with sweet berry cobbler, chocolate ganache, and caramel. The finish goes on and on. Add in a fair price and excellent availability as part of Knob Creek’s core lineup, and only one question remains: What are you waiting for?

Best Bourbon Of 2020 - Breaking Bourbon

"Knob Creek 12 Year is a reminder that a bourbon doesn’t need to be a high octane barrel proof pick, a limited edition special release, or even a single barrel to offer a fantastic sip that is available year round."
