Knob Creek 2001 Limited Edition 100 Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750 ml
Knob Creek 2001 Limited Edition is an ultra-aged small-batch bourbon that was the oldest Knob Creek expression at its time of release — over 14 years in deeply charred white oak barrels, produced in three batches of limited quantity (targeting 12,000 bottles per batch), representing the furthest extension of Booker Noe's patient aging philosophy and demonstrating what the Knob Creek distillate achieves with exceptional oak contact time.
Most Knob Creek expressions are aged 9 years (standard) or 12 years. The 2001 Limited Edition pushed beyond 14 years — a significant extension that allows the charred white oak to impart deeper caramel, dark fruit, and leather character than shorter-aged expressions can develop. Three separate limited batches were produced, each with approximately 12,000 bottles, making the cumulative production modest by bourbon standards. At 100 proof, the extended aging concentration is fully delivered without dilution.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Deep caramel, dark oak, and vanilla with the complexity of 14+ years of white oak contact
- Palate: Rich and full-bodied — caramel, toffee, dark dried fruit, and warm oak spice developed over exceptional aging time
- Finish: Long and robust with the depth that only extended barrel aging produces
