Knob Creek 9 Years Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon 50% Vol. 0,7l

Thanks to its nine-year maturation in new, burnt-out American oak barrels, Knob Creek Bourbon develops a remarkable complexity and depth. The long barrel ageing not only gives it an intense dark amber color, but also a rich aroma with pronounced caramel and vanilla notes, which are accompanied by a fine spiciness. At 50 % vol. (100 proof), this bourbon has a strong intensity, but remains wonderfully smooth and balanced at the same time. Its high-quality mash bill combines a high proportion of corn with a fine proportion of rye, which contributes a pleasant spiciness and complexity. With its long maturation period, powerful 50 % vol. and classic bourbon spiciness, Knob Creek 9 Years Old is an excellent straight bourbon for connoisseurs and lovers of high-quality American whiskeys.
