Nine years of that cycling in Knob Creek's deeply charred barrels develops the dill, clove, and charred oak palate that defines this expression. Bottled unfiltered at 119.6 proof, no dilution and no filtration — the full barrel is in the bottle, including the natural oils and fatty acids that cold filtration typically removes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e A blend of dill, spice, and honey with essences of charred oak — the Warehouse A and unfiltered bottling giving full rye character\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dill and clove leading into sweet baking spice with slight charred oak — bold and full at 119.6 proof\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light on the tongue and lingering with warm baking spices before ending with the characteristic warmth of cask strength Kentucky rye\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jim Beam, Clermont, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 years\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWarehouse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warehouse A — oldest standing rackhouse at the distillery\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 59.8% (119.6 Proof)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBottling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unfiltered at natural barrel proof\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rye\"\u003erye whiskey at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What makes Warehouse A significant for Knob Creek rye aging?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Warehouse A is the oldest standing rackhouse at the Clermont distillery — older, less-insulated construction means more temperature cycling through Kentucky's extreme seasons, more wood interaction, and more concentrated barrel character than newer warehouse positions.
