New Knob Creek 21 Years Old: Limited Edition Bourbon

Introduction & Overview

The James B. Beam Distilling Company from Clermont, Kentucky, introduces the Knob Creek 21 Years Old Limited Edition 75 cl , marking the oldest release in the Knob Creek portfolio to date. Bottled at a robust 50% ABV, this 21-year-old bourbon represents a significant milestone, presenting a rich, extra-aged expression that elevates the brand’s pre-Prohibition style craftsmanship.

Design & Presentation

This limited-edition bourbon arrives in a specially crafted commemorative box, designed as a distinguished keepsake to honor both the heritage and the meticulous care behind this release. The presentation underscores the premium status of this new high-end addition to the Knob Creek range.

Maturation & Flavor Profile

Rested for over two decades in new, maximum charred American oak barrels, the whisky developed exceptional depth and color. The 21-year maturation brings forward aromas of seasoned oak, caramelized sugar, and subtle smoke. On the palate, expect layers of deep caramel, char, hints of fruit, and toasted oak, culminating in a long, warm finish of toffee and charred wood.

Master Blender’s Statement

“When we first laid this batch to rest, we weren’t chasing any specific age statement – we were focused on crafting a great bourbon, just like we always do. After I tasted the whiskey, I knew we had something special. After decades in the rackhouse, the liquid developed a richness and balance we knew Knob Creek fans and whiskey enthusiasts would want to try,” said the master blender, highlighting its bold character and faithful representation of the Knob Creek style.
