Distilled and aged in the heart of bourbon country, this small-batch bourbon is meticulously crafted under the watchful care of seventh-generation distillers who uphold a legacy of excellence.

The aging occurs in Kentucky rack houses, where the region's distinct climate, with fluctuating temperatures, enhances the interaction between the spirit and the barrel. At 100 proof, Knob Creek 9 Year Barrel Reserve is a bold yet balanced bourbon, offering enthusiasts a refined experience suitable for sipping neat or elevating classic cocktails. Beloved by bourbon enthusiasts, Knob Creek 9 Year Barrel Reserve stands as a strong, no-compromise option that echoes the ideals of a pre-Prohibition whiskey era.
