Knob Creek Smoked Maple Straight Bourbon LOCATION:M1D4 toasted barley

toasted barley

The earthy smoke is present but never overpowering

balanced between creamy vanilla toffee and drying spiced oak and hints of peat

Glenburgie is emerging as one of my preferred Speyside distilleries due to its consistent delivery of tropical fruit notes

There is a hint of dried fruit and a touch of spice that adds complexity to the nose

Knob Creek Smoked Maple Straight Bourbon LOCATION:M1D4 toasted barley"Whiskey first, flavoring second in this bottle. The alcohol presence comes through early on the nose and palate (it's 90 proof, after all), followed by undercurrents of maple and vanilla. It finishes with flourishes of spice and heat, with a welcome orange peel note. If you're seeking a quality flavored Bourbon that will stand up to mixing, here it is." 92 100, Wine Enthusiast
