Knob Creek Bourbon x Rye

Nose: Baking spices and rye spice along with caramel and brown sugar. Palate: Baking spices, white pepper, and orange peel before caramel and brown sugar take over. Finish: Baking spices, black pepper, and rye spice before brown sugar and caramel pull in against the spice, creating an equal balance between the sweet and spicy sides.

I liked this more neat than with drops of water. Not complex but solid for the price of a bottle.

Aroma is spice and caramel. Flavor is a good bit of spice with some higher alcohol, and some earthiness.

On the nose, I get notes of honey and minty spice. Nice combination of spicy rye and sweet wheat flavors. The bourbon gives it some smooth buttery notes as well. Overall, I like it a lot.
