The Knob Creek 9 Years Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon 50% Vol. 0.7 l is a classic, intensely matured small batch bourbon that is known for its exceptional depth and powerful character. Produced in Kentucky, USA, this bourbon embodies the essence of traditional American whiskey art.
Thanks to its nine-year maturation in new, burnt-out American oak barrels, Knob Creek Bourbon develops a remarkable complexity and depth. The long barrel ageing not only gives it an intense dark amber color, but also a rich aroma with pronounced caramel and vanilla notes, which are accompanied by a fine spiciness.
At 50 % vol. (100 proof), this bourbon has a strong intensity, but remains wonderfully smooth and balanced at the same time. Its high-quality mash bill combines a high proportion of corn with a fine proportion of rye, which contributes a pleasant spiciness and complexity.
With its long maturation period, powerful 50 % vol. and classic bourbon spiciness, Knob Creek 9 Years Old is an excellent straight bourbon for connoisseurs and lovers of high-quality American whiskeys. (automated translation)
