Bourbon lovers looking for the decadent oakiness of extra age will do well to treat themselves to this limited release from Knob Creek. Made from their standard mash bill (77% corn, 13% rye, 10% malted barley) and rested in heavily charred, new American oak for 15 years, it s all the roasty-toasty, caramel goodness you could hope for. Leading aromas of worn leather and toasted oak are supplemented by blackberry compote and roasted plum, with persistent caramel notes. Luscious on the palate, a wealth of rye spices and aromatic pepper build to drying oak, softened and sweetened by rich brown sugar, plump raisin, vanilla pod, and cigar box, with an everlasting finish oscillating between soft rye spice, sweet caramel, and sugared graham cracker. With character to spare, it s a great way to put your feet up after a long day, and a generous way to gift someone.
