Knob Creek Single Barrel Select Bourbon

Nose is a lot of ethanol and buttherscotch. I have to let this one sit out for a while before i get anything Taste is butterscotch, honey roasted nuts. A little drying. Finish on this bottle is short. Tingles on the front of the palate and lips. This is a step up from standard 9 year but the flavor is more muted than I would like for the proof. Its also not very complex and it has a short finish. It doesnt strike me as very oaky for 9 years age. In fact, this particular single barrel is 9 yrs 11 mo, nearly 10 yrs old. Its not bad but comparing this to ECBP, RRSB, Rare Breed and even a younger MGP single barrel I think it is my least favorite of the bunch. At $50ish i can find this for its about the best price though.

Nose: brown sugar, vanilla, hot, very pure ethanol forward Taste: caramel, harsh baking spices Finish: hot, long, spices T8ke rating: 4/10

Did not drink like a 60 proof. Smooth and full bodied. This was a store pick from my local store and they did great job with this pick!

Nose: Pepper, leather, nutty nutty body, fruity, fine spice

Nose: maple, red apple, and sweet leather. Palate: sweet with notes of dark red apple, plum, cashews, and caramel. Buttery mouthfeel finish. Medium to long finish.

Maple, pecan, vanilla, apple on the nose. Light spice and earthiness as well. The taste up front is super unique, green apple and dark stonefruit / fig, really hard to pinpoint. Nuttiness comes along with some salted butter and spicyness.
