knob Creek Straight Bourbon Cask Strength Small Batch Limited Edition 12 yr 121.2

Some bottles are released. Others become a hunt.

Knob Creek 12 Year Cask Strength Limited Edition belongs firmly in the second camp. Twelve patient years in oak give this Kentucky straight bourbon the kind of maturity serious whiskey drinkers chase, while a commanding 121.2 proof turns the familiar Knob Creek profile into something deeper, darker, and far more intense.

Expect waves of dark caramel, brown sugar, toasted vanilla, and seasoned oak, followed by roasted nuts, ripe cherry, baking spice, and a measured crack of pepper. The palate is full and muscular without losing its balance, carrying into a long, warming finish where caramelized sweetness and mature oak linger well after the glass is set down.

Why this bottle matters

• A genuine 12-year age statement
• Cask-strength bourbon bottled at 121.2 proof
• Small-batch, limited-edition release
• A hard-to-find Knob Creek expression with serious collector appeal

This is the bottle for the Knob Creek loyalist who wants the volume turned all the way up—and for the bourbon hunter who knows that mature, high-proof releases rarely stay on shelves for long. Pour it neat to experience its full weight, or add a few drops of water and let the layers unfold.

Availability is extremely limited. Once our current allocation is gone, the next opportunity to secure a bottle may be a long wait.
