Knob Creek 15 Year Old Bourbon (2020 Limited Release)
100 proof 15 years Bourbon Jim Beam Clermont, KY $100 75% corn, 13% rye, 12% malted barley
Nose

Darker and more focused than typical bourbons; deeper fruit notes of plum and raisin; oak and leather coming through prominently.

Palate

Powerful oak presence with spice from both the rye content and barrel influence; raisins and caramels with a hint of brown sugar; slight minty or cool refreshing quality from the rye; drying sensation on the steel but not overly tannic; keeps begging for another sip.

Finish

Longer and more persistent than the 18-year-old; lingers with spice and oak character.

Noteworthy
A bold, oaky fall sipper with strong spice and raisin notes that continuously invites another pour, though the heavy oak may not appeal to everyone.
