Hey everyone and welcome to another bite-sized review where I review a whiskey in 90 seconds or
0:05
less. Today we're reviewing Knob Creek 12-year small batch. So I've been receiving a lot of
0:10
requests to review this whiskey here on this channel because y'all know I love the knobs, so I'm here to let you know if this is worth picking up at the $60 price point. So this 12-year
0:18
comes in at 100 proof. There is a castment version. I have not seen it in Southern California. If you've
0:23
seen it, let me know how does it compare to this one because I am really looking forward to trying
0:26
that one. On the nose, classic knob creak. I love how much oak shines through on this whiskey, but
0:33
it's not like an overwhelming oak like some of the single barrel selects can be. This is a very
0:37
sweet oak on the nose, so I'm curious to see how it holds up in the taste. Cheers! Even though this
0:42
is only 100 proof, there's a lot of flavor popping out of this glass. Sweet at the front of the
0:46
palate, definitely like a vanilla sweetness, then it transitions more towards a oak and leather
0:50
forward mid palate. It does have a bit of a spice there, but I wouldn't say this really has a long
0:55
finish. I kind of would hope there to be a bit more of a finish with it, but it's still a very pleasant experience, and I think it's very, very well balanced. So overall, Knob Creek 12-year gets
1:05
my recommendation. Yes, I would like it to have it at cast strength. I'm sure it's a better product
1:09
at that level, but for the average person, I think they're really going to enjoy this, especially if
1:13
they love an oakier, drier whiskey. So thank you all so much for watching. This has been Bourbon

Bites, whiskey reviews with a gaming twist. I'm Clifton. Cheers, and I'll see y'all next video
