Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 60%

Score: 93 Points

Intense nose with vanilla, caramel, oak, molasses, and toasted bread notes. The taste is thick and intense with chili peppers fading to reveal molasses, brown sugar, vanilla, and caramel candy. The finish is spicy, long, and a great mix of tartness and sweetness…think Carolina-style barbecue sauce with a touch of vinegar.
