Peanut on nose, palate and finish. High proof is in balance, so while noticeable it does not overwhelm the other flavor notes. Some spice and lingering red hot on finish. Good bourbon.
Nose: peanuts, peanuts and more peanuts. Then chocolate and cinnamon.
Palate: Honey roasted peanuts covered in chocolate turns to heat and vanilla and then cinnamon candy. Coats well.
Finish: chocolate and cinnamon. Not as long as expected considering the 126.4 proof.
I know this isn't the highest rated from Distiller, but this is one of my all time favorite bourbons if not my favorite. Wish I had a second bottle. I love the nutty flavor of this bourbon.
Been wanting to try one of the Bookers collection bottles for some time now so when I saw this one last year I picked it up. Finally polished off enough open bottles in my bar to justify opening a new one so here goes…
First thought upon taking a whiff is wow that’s definitely a Knob Creek product. Smells so good. Anyone who says peanuts/peanut brittle is spot on! Smells so good. I tried this right after a Calumet 14 and this blew it away.
The taste is everything Beam you would want and expect from it. Very similar to the KC 120 bottles but in my opinion a step up.
If you want to splurge and get the fancy box and bottle with wax to impress your non-whiskey drinking friends go for it. This to me is a great whiskey but the price for me is a tad higher than I like to spend on a bottle. I try to limit myself to $60-70 but this was on my list to try for quite some time so I’m glad I splurged.
