Look: Amber colored, Knob Creek has some lacing when moving along the glass, but not much, but nice alcohol legs. Nose: Rye pops out at you initially, spicy, not so herbal to my nose. Cinnamon and pepper largely. There’s also some sweet vanilla and brown sugar. Taste: rye dominated throughout, cinnamon as noted in the nose, slight pepper, slight sweetness, but really, a really cinnamon forward rye. Feel: the heat on this is high, plenty of burn in the finish, and a lasting finish at that. Overall: this is an underrated product, considering its association with Jim Beam. Worth trying for the price.
