Booker Noe named Knob Creek after the small stream that flows thru President Abraham Lincoln's childhood home in Kentucky.

1. Knob Creek Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Color: Deep and Dark Amber
Taste: Takes over your palate with big notes of oak caramel and fruit.

Knob Creek is crafted in limited quantities, aged 9 years and placed in only the deepest charred American Oak barrels to fully draw out the natural sugars. Then we bottle it at an honest 100 proof to reflect the flavor, strength and patience that defined pre-prohibition whiskey.

2. Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Carefully hand selected, barrel by barrel, to bring you a mature robust flavor.
Color: Our darkest and deepest amber color
Taste: Deep and complex flavors of vanilla, nuts and oak

Most bourbon is blended together from multiple barrels to create a consistent taste. However, each barrel of Single Barrel Reserve is bottled individually to become one-of-a-kind. Each batch we handpick will have slight variations in taste, color and aroma based on its final age, rack placement and other proprietary methods passed down for eight generations.

Best yet, it's bottled at a 120 proof, so it's an even bigger expression of our signature flavor. You’ll find more pronounced flavors and a smokier aroma. And although it packs a high proof, the finish is still smooth and complex.

3.Knob Creek Smoked Maple Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Color: Copper to medium Amber
Taste: Full Bodied inviting maple notes that lift to smoke and are complimented with rich vanilla and caramel.

4. Knob Creek Rye Whiskey
Made with a blend of the finest handcrafted rye to create a smooth yet spicy finish
Color: Shades of Gold to light amber
Taste: Bold rye spiciness with undertones of vanilla and oak

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUR SPECIALTY,
but apparently now, Kentucky Straight Rye is too. The judges at the world-renowned San Francisco Spirits Competition have named Knob Creek Rye Whiskey the "Best Rye," and bartenders across the nation are calling it the benchmark. Thanks to Booker Noe's original vision for big flavor, your cocktails are in for quite a treat.

Knob Creek Rye is still made in small batches, patiently aged in the deepest charred barrels and bottled at a full 100 proof to maintain our approach to big flavor. Only instead of corn as the master grain, it's rye. We happen to use the highest quality rye. It's what gives you that unique spicy, smooth flavor that changes your cocktails forever.
