Knob Creek 12 Year Old Bourbon Review

This small-batch Beam Suntory release relies on age rather than heady proof to deliver stunning complexity. Notes of dark chocolate, peanuts, orange peel, and toasted oak comprise just a fraction of its generous and inviting profile. At 100 proof and 12 years old, it is a welcome reminder that bourbon needn’t arrive at cask strength to serve power and intensity. Don't buy one, buy two!
