Knob Creek Single Barrel Select is a cask strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, bottled at barrel proof from individually hand-selected single barrels. Crafted at the historic Jim Beam Distillery in Clermont, Kentucky — a distillery with roots dating back to 1795 — this exceptional expression represents the pinnacle of the Knob Creek lineup.

Each barrel is aged for a minimum of nine years in new, charred American oak barrels, drawing out deep flavors that develop slowly over time. The mash bill consists of corn, rye, and malted barley, producing a full-bodied, robust spirit. Because each bottle comes from a single barrel, proof and character vary slightly from barrel to barrel, making every release a unique expression. Bottles are typically labeled with the barrel number, warehouse, rick number, and bottling date.

Tasting notes reveal a deep amber color with bold aromas of vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak on the nose. The palate is rich and full-bodied, delivering layers of vanilla, caramel, oak, warm spice, and toasted nuts. The finish is long and smooth, with lingering notes of spice and charred oak. Best enjoyed neat or with a single large ice cube to open up the complex flavors.
