Knob Creek Smoked Maple
Knob Creek Smoked Maple is a flavored bourbon that blends Knob Creek's original Kentucky Straight Bourbon with natural maple flavors, resulting in a unique, smoky sweetness. It has a full-bodied taste with inviting maple notes that are lifted by smoke and complemented by rich vanilla and caramel. The aroma features smoked hickory and maple wood, with hints of earthy grains. It's known for its smooth, slightly sweet finish, and while it's high-proof (90 proof), it's sweeter than some might expect, making it a good choice for those new to bourbon or who enjoy sweeter spirits, especially in cocktails.
