Knob Creek Twice Barreled Rye (100 Proof)
100 proof Rye Knob Creek Clermont, KY
Nose

Prominent citrus (orange), peppery spice (cinnamon), and evergreen/conifer notes with hints of cedar.

Palate

Less sweet than expected for a twice-barreled expression. Bold oak presence with pronounced tannins in the mid-palate, reminiscent of a full-bodied cabernet. Green boiled peanut character with some toasted malt/cracker notes.

Finish

Short finish with minimal lingering notes.

Respectable
A solid rye with bold oak and interesting peanut character, though the finish falls short of expectations for a twice-barreled expression.
