Knob Creek 21 Year is one of the most age-forward expressions ever released under the Knob Creek name — a Kentucky straight bourbon that has spent over two decades maturing in charred new American oak barrels at the Jim Beam distillery in Clermont, KY. The result is a bourbon of remarkable depth and refinement, where extended aging has coaxed out layers of complexity that only time can produce.
Released in extremely limited quantities, this is a serious collector's bottle and a standout pour for those who appreciate the nuance that comes with long-aged American whiskey.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Aged oak, dark chocolate, dried fig, leather, and a hint of tobacco
Palate: Rich and contemplative — espresso, dark caramel, baking spice, dried fruit, and deep charred wood with a silky, full-bodied texture
Finish: Exceptionally long with lingering oak, dark fruit, and a gentle warmth
