Full-flavored small batch bourbon in the pre-Prohibition style.
What it is
Knob Creek Small Batch is a Kentucky straight bourbon aged 9 years and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). It was created to restore the standards of pre-Prohibition bourbon, and it is aged in deeply charred American oak barrels. The result is a big, full flavor with maple sugar sweetness and a rich, woody, caramel character.
