About this bottle
Knob Creek Bourbon x Rye is a blend of Knob Creek's high-rye bourbon and its straight rye whiskey, both aged 9 years in new charred American oak, bottled as a hybrid rather than choosing one grain lane over the other. Knob Creek has long leaned into high-proof, full-flavored whiskey as its house identity, and combining the two styles is meant to pull rye's spice into the bourbon's sweeter caramel base. Expect a bold, spicy-sweet profile: caramel and vanilla up front, rye pepper and oak spice underneath, more assertive than either component alone.
How to drink Knob Creek Bourbon x Rye
Drink it neat first to catch the bourbon-rye balance, then try it in an Old Fashioned where the extra spice from the rye half gives the cocktail more backbone than a standard bourbon build.

Questions about this bottle
What's the best way to serve Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye?
Serve it neat or with a few drops of water in a rocks or Glencairn glass to let the aroma open up; a single large ice cube works too if you prefer it chilled. Keep the bottle capped and upright once opened — whiskey doesn't spoil, so it holds its character well for a year or more.
What cocktails work well with Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye?
Rye whiskey is the classic choice for a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned — its spice holds up against sweet vermouth or sugar and bitters better than a softer bourbon would. It also makes a solid Sazerac if you want something more assertive.
How long is Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye aged?
It's aged 9 years.
What's the story behind Knob Creek?
Knob Creek is named after the stream near Abraham Lincoln's boyhood home in Kentucky, and it's part of Jim Beam's small batch bourbon collection, built around bolder, higher-proof whiskey than the standard Jim Beam line.
