Knob Creek Reviews

Medium sweet Bourbon. Nice burn at 100 proof. This is what American Whiskey should be like. It isn't as smooth as the Woodford or as flavorful as the W L Weller Special Reserve, not to mention that it costs more.

My go to bourbon. A big step up from Jim Beam, Grandad, and Makers. In my opinion it is on par with much higher priced bourbons.

A good dram from the Beam distillery, however, aged nine years in small batches, I expected an excellent one. For my money, I’ll stick with the more affordable, younger, and superior Beam Black, Maker's Mark or Beam Rye, for that matter.

Very pleasant whiskey, not as much burn as you would expect with a high alcohol whiskey, a nice lingering after taste and not much burn at all. Very smooth.

Yowzer!! This one has some strength to it! One of the more enjoyable bourbons I've had. I like 'em neat though, so I go slow with this one.

This Bourbon (not Tennessee Whiskey) has grown on me. Not comparable to a Jack Daniels(Tennessee Whiskey) or Jim Beam, which are both possibly only good for mixing. Lots of burn, but some underlying complexity that comes out with a bit of water. Traditional Bourbon vanilla and honey. Not truly worth the price tag though.

Knob creek is what bourbon is supposed to be warm and strong, just complex enough

This is a whisky best appreciated by a seasoned bourbon drinker. One to be savored. Don't you dare mix it.

My favorite "storebrand" whiskey. It's high proof and reminds you as such, with alcohol a dominant present in the nose and throat upon first sip. Once you settle in though, it gets comforting, warm and a bit woody. It makes its brothers in the JD line taste like pale, sour imitations of real whiskey, but it doesn't really try too hard to be anything special. You can still taste a bit of that JD/JB "sourness" (I call it) in the mix. JD is bottom shelf whiskey at middleshelf price. Knob Creek knows its place and aims a little higher. An excellent stock whiskey for drinking neat, if you don't mind a little burn.

A good Jim Beam, but not the best bourbon. When I bought and tasted it, I thought it worth the prices. However, after tasting other bourbon like Evan Williams Single Barrel and Woodford Reserve, I'm not sure it worth the price that much. It is definitely strong in alcohol, not a lady drink. But worth a try.

First tasted this whiskey at the golf course bar. I ordered a Manhattan made from it. It was exceptional. Better than JD.

Excellent whiskey, any true bourbon fan would give this a way higher rating then jim beam or jack daniels....i mean come on!

I like it better than Jack. It almost reminds me of a grown up southern comfort - not sure that's what was intended.
