Knob Creek 'Small Batch' 9-Year-Old Bourbon opens with a nose that exudes a slight nuttiness, accompanied by notes of vanilla, light oak, and caramel, with hints of char and fresh marshmallows. The palate carries forward the pleasantness of the nose, featuring a base of rich oak layered with green peppercorns, sweet vanilla, and lightly toasted caramel. The flavors are well-balanced yet subtle, presenting a lighter mouthfeel that complements the depth of its character. The finish is marked by aged oak, vanilla, and leather, followed by a dash of black pepper and rye spice, with a lingering warmth that rounds out the experience.
