Knob Creek Single Barrel Select Rye

Rye — Kentucky, USA

Reviewed March 18, 2019 (edited January 18, 2022)
3.75
3.75 out of 5 stars
This is Single Barrel store pick - 115 proof - Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey. N: Seasoned oak, rye bread, spearmint, vanilla, cinnamon, butterscotch, teaberry. P: Spearmint, teaberry, light vanilla, butterscotch, faint dill. F: Oak and nutmeg, mint morphs into black pepper. The nose is fairly busy and powerful, as you would expect with that high of a Proof. On the palate, an initial alcohol bite gives way to that of chewing sticks of spearmint and teaberry gum at the same time with a little dill, vanilla, and butterscotch on the side. It’s heavy on the mint overall, but that’s not really surprising. A decent rye all-in-all.

    Interesting with all the mint notes you got. Both store picks I have bought had a lot more barrel char notes. This one sounds like a Sagamore Cask Strength I had a while back. Lots of mint! great review as always!
