Knob Creek, a small batch bourbon crafted by Jim Beam, adheres to a traditional distillation process and is aged for nine years. Its name is derived from the Kentucky region where Abraham Lincoln spent his childhood years, a place of historical significance where it’s rumored the creek almost took his life during a swimming incident.

Distillery 291 3 Year Old – Batch 2 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company) (66.6% abv) 500ml
$134.99Original price was: $134.99.$58.99Current price is: $58.99.The first of two new bottlings from the multi award-winning, small batch whiskey distillery nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Distillery 291.
Our Batch 2, is a 3 Year Old single cask Rye Whiskey, using 100% Colorado Rye. We’ve bottled it at natural cask strength 66.6% abv, and have filled just 294 bottles
With a nod to tradition, the mash is soured in open air fermenters before it is distilled three times in locally-made pot stills. Myers built his original still from copper photogravure plates that he had once used.
The whiskey is aged in virgin, heavy charred, American white oak barrels and is then brought to a finish using toasted aspen staves, which are harvested from a friend’s nearby land.
These two releases are an exercise in whisky geekery, and had we not gotten our hands on them would have been released as one of their ‘E’ Series releases. (E for experimental)
