Bottle kill quickie: Nose is caramel, oak, lemon, sugar. This is as knob creekish as you can get, although I can’t detect the high ABV. Body is sweet tea. Heat pops in here. Hot damn. There’s sugar, lemon. The sweet tea is the main note though. Finish is cinnamon, spices. Mild tobacco. On ice, I can get more of the leathery notes I often associate with knob creek. Other than that, just a less hot version. This ain’t special. It’s fine.
