Knob Creek Rye Single Barrel Select (Lexington Bourbon Society / Wine & Market Pick)
115 proof 6 years Rye Knob Creek Clermont, KY
Nose

Sweet with citrus notes, syrupy, ketchup, candy-like sweetness that could pour on pancakes

Palate

Citrus forward, candy orange, sweet but with rye spice that confirms it's a rye and not a bourbon

Finish

Hug from the higher proof is present but not as harsh as expected at 115 proof; lingering sweetness

Recommended
A deceptively smooth and sweet high-proof rye with beautiful citrus notes and spice balance that belies its alcohol content.
