“Knob Creek s latest rye takes an already solid shelfer and leans in, adding plenty of bourbon-style sweetness with additional time in the barrel. It s got just a touch more character and depth than Knob Creek s 7 year old rye without quite climbing a full ladder rung above it. As with the 7 year old version, it also invites you to experiment and go high-end on that next rye-based cocktail.” – David Tao, Drinkhacker (90 Points)

“The nose shows a grain-forward/herbal profile with a fair amount of char smoke. On the palate, the rye is medium-full and lightly sweet. Again the flavors have a hearty, grain-forward flavor leading to a tangy ending with a peppery bite. The sweet notes, which are restrained, are more concentrated with dark caramel as opposed to cotton candy. It ends dry, but not too dry and it stays with you awhile.” – Stephanie Moreno, Distiller (90 Points)
