About Knob Creek®
Knob
Creek® has set the standard for
super-premium whiskey for three decades by crafting extraordinary
full-flavored bourbon with a rich taste. Knob
Creek® bourbons and ryes are patiently aged
to perfection in new, maximum charred American Oak barrels to
impart the biggest and fullest flavor on their whiskey. No matter
the expression, Knob Creek® is crafted
without shortcuts and embodies the pre-Prohibition style that
founding distiller Booker Noe created in 1992. Since
then, Knob Creek® has lived up to such standards
with the introduction of Knob Creek®
Straight Rye Whiskey in 2012, and later on, Knob
Creek® Single Barrel Select Rye Whiskey. In recent
years, Knob Creek® announced the permanent addition
of Knob Creek® 12 Year Old Bourbon and launched two
limited releases, Knob Creek® 15 Year Old Bourbon and
Knob Creek® 18 Year Old Bourbon. Knob Creek
has continued to build out its rye portfolio; the brand announced
the addition of an age statement to its flagship rye whiskey, Knob
Creek® 7 Year Old Rye Whiskey, and released Knob
Creek® 10 Year Old Rye Whiskey earlier
this year.
