Knob Creek 9 Year Small Batch Bourbon

Smoky Coca-Cola. My daily drinker, thanks to Costco

Enjoyed at Citifield. Went there with Jackson and the little league.

375ml bottle Fair amount of ethanol on the nose matching the 100 proof. I couldn't pick up a ton on the nose. I did get some burnt brown sugar and vanilla with some toasted marshmellow. Also a faint fruitiness is present in the background with some oak. The oak is much more apparent in taste than it was on the nose. Along with it I get more toasted marshmellow, vanilla, and some citrus fruit. I also get a little bit of a grainy flavor that I didn't care for. Medium finish consisting mostly of oak and black pepper. Overall it was pretty decent. While the flavors didn't seem overly complex they did pack a decent flavor punch. I'd say that it seems pretty average but is a solid choice none the less.

Simple nose of oak and maple. Maple, oak and vanilla on the taste. Bit of spice jumps in towards the end but not overkill for 100 proof although a little hotter than some. Very flavorful and a solid choice.
