Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

Knob Creek Bourbon Blenders’ Edition No. 1 drinks with a rich, warming feel, opening on deep caramel, toasted oak, and vanilla before settling into a bold, lingering finish with a touch of spice. Produced in the United States as part of Knob Creek’s bourbon whiskey lineup, this expression reflects a blender-focused approach that highlights layered barrel character and a fuller, more concentrated style. With an ABV of 0.5, it suits slow sipping, especially on an evening when you are digging into barbecue ribs or finishing a meal with a piece of dark chocolate, both of which play nicely with its sweet, smoky depth.
