Knob Creek Blender's Edition 01 — Sweet Bourbon Blend
106 proof
10 years
Bourbon
Jim Beam
Clermont, KY
$45
Nose
Faint nose with vanilla and rickhouse funk; cake batter character emerges with continued aeration.
Palate
Light and approachable with dominant vanilla and confectionary sweetness; minimal nuttiness typical of standard Knob Creek expressions; gentle despite the proof, suggesting lower-floor barrel selection.
Finish
Clean, sweet finish with vanilla persistence.
Enjoyable
A deliberately approachable, vanilla-forward blend that steps outside Knob Creek's traditional bold profile, making it an excellent entry point for those exploring higher proof bourbons.
