Small Batch Rye Whiskey image
Knob Creek Small Batch Rye Whiskey
The highest-quality rye grains create the hardest-working rye whiskey. This 100 proof Knob Creek Rye pairs traditional rye spice with our signature Knob Creek sweetness. Its high corn mashbill makes it perfect for the bourbon drinker looking to add a rye to their liquor cabinet. Just ask the judges of the 2016 World Spirits Competition, who named Knob Creek Rye the World's Best Rye.

Koval Single Barrel Rye Whiskey
Koval Single Barrel Rye Whiskey is a 100% rye whiskey known for its unique and surprisingly fresh, light character. It features mellow, sweet notes of maple and candy corn, with a spicy finish, all derived from its unique mash bill of organic rye grain. The whiskey is aged in new, charred American oak barrels and is bottled from single barrels, resulting in a unique character for each bottle.

Independently Owned
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose features intense spicy notes of cinnamon and pepper, along with hints of fresh citrus and vanilla.
Palate: On the palate, it's full-bodied, with a strong rye spice, dried fruit, caramel, and subtle sweetness.
Finish: The finish is characterized by a distinctive peppery note, oak, and vanilla, with a lingering warmth.
