KNOB CREEK SINGLE BARREL SELECT RYE S1B14

The Knob Creek® Single Barrel Select program delivers Knob Creek®'s purest expression of old-style flavor. Each bottle remains unblended, highlighting the singular characteristics of their finest hand-selected barrels. This unblended rye whiskey is from a one-of-a-kind barrel selected by a ReserveBar Tasting Panel based on a sampling of Knob Creek's finest barrels.

Lee Diaz, Topflight Panel Member:

Instead of traveling to Kentucky for this selection, the tasting came to us. A beautiful kit was mailed to us, which included three barrel options, fresh limestone filtered water (like you would find at the distillery), and a graduated cylinder. This selection would become a beautiful blend of science and magic, resulting in the Single Barrel Select Rye you see before you. First and foremost, I love the golden honey hue of this pour. As you admire this beautiful color, the aromas of this Rye will greet you with a nose full of brown sugar, graham cracker, and honey with a clear hint of that Rye. This leads to flavors of warm rye bread, oak, and caramel. The finish combines rye spice, leather, and cinnamon sugar.
