Knob Creek Small Batch 7 Year Straight Rye Whiskey (750ml) St. Emilion The aromatics are followed byThough this new offering meets the technical criteria for rye (a mash bill of at least 51% rye), the sweet, caramelly flavors suggest a high rye Bourbonwhich makes sense considering that Knob Creek is best known for its Bourbon.
