We are super excited to announce the arrival of not one but 2 different Single barrel Bourbons from Knob Creek. Why 2 at once you ask? We wanted to showcase just how all single barrels are not created equal with each one unique in its own right. A little bird also told us that these single barrels will not be as easy to get next year.

Both of these barrels were aged on the 5th floor of the same warehouse (W-L) only a week separates their age and both proofed at 120. That being said both are so wonderfully different from each other. For those not afraid to experiment, when blended together at home you will gain an entirely new perspective on how two incredible bourbons can not only stand alone and be great but create an entirely different experience when married together.

Barrel 1 we dipped in WHITE WAX to signify its huge vanilla presence. Bold up front baking spice and toffee make way to a BIG ending that is reminiscent of a vanilla beans soaked in a creme brûlée topped with subtle notes of dark stone fruit asking if they can join the party.

Barrel 2 just 6 days older than its sibling is dipped in RED WAX to signify its Big Bold smack you in the face with a bunch of Cherries flavor profile. On first sip you will notice a massive body with notes of caramel and slight bakers spice trying to make its way through what feels like an entire orchid of cherries! Juicy and robust the cherries dominate the mid palate but leave you with a finish of oatmeal cookies and slight cinnamon tingle having your tongue just begging for you to take the next sip.

50% White 50% Red= 100% Incredible! We were not kidding when we say mix these two together. A mixture of half white barrel and half red barrel gives you a burst of maple syrup, vanilla bean and stone fruit on the nose. The mouthfeel it creates is velvety and bold with an over the top knock out punch of bing cherry, vanilla & caramel leaving you with a spiced oatmeal cookie and dried cherry finish that lasts for days.

These will be the last 2 bottles in our infinity Redstone series with the 2 bottles making the last stone. For those that have collected all of the bottles in the series and are maked in our system you will automatically receive bonus entire in our Whiskey draft raffle. For those that have not, not to worry this weekend (December 14th and 15th only) we will open up whiskey ticket weekend with 1 raffle ticket for any 750ml btl of whiskey purchased, 2 tickets for any one of our single barrels purchased…As a way to welcome our 2 Knob Creek barrels to the party anyone who purchases both Red wax and White wax barrels will get a total of 6 tickets(3 each).

Knob Creek Single Barrel (Redstone Barrel Society Exclusive) https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/knob-creek-single-barrel-redstone-barrel-society-exclusive/ Fri, 26 Oct 2018 00:52:37 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=17160

 

Excited to announce the arrival of our Knob Creek Single Barrel Bourbon. This year’s pick was born on January 16th of 2004 making it almost 15 years old. This barrel is proofed higher than the OG version at 120 and is a certifiable “cherry bomb”. Weighty mouthfeel full of cherries and caramel, minimal heat with a finish of dusted cocoa and mocha.

This barel will be released at both Redstone locations at 12pm October 27th (Same date as our 10th Anniversary Whiskey fest in Stoneham)

Samples will also be available at the fest.

 

Cheers

Knob Creek Single Barrel Rye (Redstone Barrel Society pick) https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/knob-creek-single-barrel-rye-redstone-barrel-society-pick/ Sat, 29 Sep 2018 00:17:49 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=16999  

We are excited to announce the arrival of our Knob Creek Single barrel RYE Whiskey! This is only one of a handful of barrels to hit the state of MA ever!

New to Knob Creek this Single barrel program lets us hand select special barrels, we then taste at cask strength as well as proof them down to 115 proof. The particular barrel that we have selected was 128.8 proof out of the gate, it started and finished off HOT!

Proofing this down to 115 opened up the aromatics displaying sweet cherry and toffee notes it also dissipated the heat leaving us with a Rye Whiskey that still has a chewy and vicious mouthfeel with soft rye spice in the front, sweet and delicate cherry and dark chocolate notes creep up in the back palate and linger throughout the finish making you crave that next sip.

The barrel yield was limited to only 180 bottles so stock up and enjoy while supplies last!

This Redstone barrel Society selection retails for $52.99/750ml and is available at the following locations:

Redstone Liquors Stoneham
Redstone Liquors Andover
Nobscot Wine and Spirits (Framingham)
Framingham Liquors
Kelly Square Liquors Worcester

We are proud to welcome the arrival of our latest Redstone Barrel Society Single barrel Bourbon. This Knob Creek single barrel was hand selected in Kentucky for you from us. It has been resting on the 4th floor, Rick 6, Tier 3 in warehouse W since November 14th of 2003 (Bottled at 13 years and 8 months!). Right from the barrel this Bourbon yields a high 134.3 proof, however before bottling these were proofed down to 120 proof to dissipate the heat but preserve the weighty mouthfeel.

Tasting notes:

Nose: Oak and spice accompanied by a harem of ripe cherries with slight hints of caramel and vanilla

Palate: Loads of dark chocolate, baking spice and stewed cherries all intermingle on the front palate. Reminiscent of a baked cherry pie dusted in thick layer of mocha.

Finish: Leaves you with a long woodsy fall spice and mouthful of cherries for days.

Redstone Liquors Exclusive bottling of Knob Creek https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-liquors-exclusive-bottling-of-knob-creek/ Thu, 07 Nov 2013 21:39:13 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=6104 image-2

We at Redstone liquors were happy to offer our customers an exclusive bottling of Knob Creek bourbon whiskey at a great price($27.99).These bottles were bottled for us and displayed in a wooden box showcasing this collaborative bottling. To learn more about Knob creek 9 year Kentucky straight bourbon see below:


When Booker fathered the small batch movement over two decades ago, he created Knob Creek® to restore the standards of pre-prohibition bourbon. The result is an undeniably big, full flavor that strikes your senses with a maple sugar aroma and distinctive sweetness.

 The extra aging, longer than nearly every other small batch offering, allows Knob Creek bourbon to absorb more of the sugar from the wood, giving it a richer taste. And treating our American white oak barrels with the highest char level brings out even more distinctive flavor qualities during the aging process.
When it’s all done, they take Knob Creek Bourbon from barrel to bottle at an honest 100 proof.

COLORYou can spot our deeper and darker amber pour.

 TASTETakes over your palate with big notes of oak, caramel and fruit.

AROMAExpansive notes of maple sugar, toasted nuts and oak.

FINISHLong and smooth but with more kick than most.
