They have 2 mash bills for bourbon at beam. Old grand Dad and basil Hayden are the high rye and bookers knob creek and bakers are the low rye.
This 12 year is unbelievable. Had it last night for the first time. Yes, you should own it!
I have a lot of older episodes to catch up on. Ran across this one and had to watch. I love Knob Creek Store Picks, but KC 12 is one of my favorite bourbons currently. I keep 3 on the shelf, so I do not run out. 😊
Thanks, Guys ! I was considering buying this after watching Fred Minnick recommend it. Every payday, I buy a decent bottle of Bourbon. I will keep watching your channel.
I swear you two seem like an old married couple sometimes.
We are
The Pod Couple
Good observation. I was thinking the same thing.
I love the Knob Creek 12 yr. For the price it's a good buy. $50 in my area. Lots of flavor. Good proof point.
Yeah, I passed on the $90 Bookers and bought TWO ($45) incredible KC 15 year 120 proof store picks that are *WAY BETTER* than any Bookers at any price....then went back and bought 2 more!
is there pricing not the most confusing thing? and why do the SiB's have a small batch label? buzz word marketing.
For $45??? The 12 year is Msrp $59 bucks. No way you paid $45 for 15 year store picks.
@@metalman3274 look CLOSER. That was OVER TWO YEARS AGO!! Good luck finding that deal today. 😕😔
Haven’t met a knob creek product I don’t like. But... the Russell’s is the bar to reach. Turkey products are hard to beat
They are both so great. The 2 best inexpensive bourbons, and not overly sweet like Buffalo Trace or Early Times BiB
Judy found it near retail and I had to pull the trigger. I can't wait to give her a try. Thanks for the content boys!!
I finally came across a bottle of this today. It’s great that the price is still $60. I know this review was about a year ago, so I’m hoping this release is similar. Looking forward to giving it try.
I almost got a bottle of this yesterday but they had it marked up to $75
Glad you reviewed this! Been wondering if it is worth $60... seems high at 100proof
I paid $80 😂. I wanted Ezra 7 but it was $75 might as well pay five bucks more for five more years.
I’ll take Single Barrel Reserve 9 year and Store Picks over the 12 year all day. The 12 year is good, but it ain’t worth the price for me since it wasn’t as oak heavy or Beam nutty to me.
Looks at price of Booker's, Baker's....
In states without KC Sib Pix, KC12 is a welcome shelf occupant.
No chance. The 12 I just picked up blows the 9 out of the water imo
I agree this is fantastic. Picked one up a month or so ago, and it's great. Also the B rolls are on point guys. Keep em coming!
Just revisited this and it’s excellent!! Definitely got better. Now to find a backup bottle. 🤣
Always preferred many alternatives to KC but a buddy (who loves KC) got me one of these for my birthday. Sat on it for a month and then, spent five minutes cleaning up my bar and floor from the 1,000 pieces the wax broke into! Everything changed after I sipped. Never had a nose and pallet be so far from each other
Hahaha so accurate on the wax, and agree 100000% on the nose and palate being disjointed.
I love breaking out a knob Creek at a party... I mean, I have so many Knob jokes on the ready! lol
I just came across a bottle of this a couple days ago. This review being over 2 years old, I'm hoping it has a similar palette profile. I'm looking forward to opening it up now.
Updates? I just bought a bottle lol
@@laxmitty21 Really good. I tried it against the KC 18 (sample I got), and while the 18 is better, I think there's more value in the 12. The 18 isn't so significantly better than the 12 that it's worth 5x the price (unless you can find it for retail). But yeah, the 12 is great! 🙂 Hope you enjoy it!
Love this stuff, it’s delicious. It opens up even better than the neck pour you got.
Side note: I always give you guys grief for the cat because I hate cats, but that was a pretty cool shot in the intro
Oh he's a good kitty.
I just bought this tonight.....it's good, but Booker's Country Ham is the jam. However, the price difference is enough to where the value of this bourbon really stands out.
Baker's 7 SiB 3/13 CL-H > KC 12 YR Sb but RR SiB polite provisions pick 17-062 RH-B Flr 5 > Baker's 7 SiB 3/13 CL-H...oh damn, they're all good. Still, KC store picks rules.
Imma let you finish this review, but Knox just made the greatest intro of all time. #ProofIsInThePaws
He's lucky he's cute.
Just picked up a knob 9 year and really loved it for $32, quick question is knob non chill filtered?
“More in the backend”...more is better 🤣
This started showing up in my town a few months ago. Super into it. I'll take this over a Basil or Russell's Reserve any day.
This is good but it isn't as good as a Russell's Reserve Single Barrel unless you really like spicy oak.
Thanks guys - I needed an escape today. Haven't been to the ABC store recently, so I'll use this as an excuse to break away.
More Cookie in the B roll! Really like the new B roll guys!
Don't care for the standard KC offering but was favored a bottle of the 9 year from a friend and it was fantastic. I don't want the next bottle of KC to disappoint. Still on the fence for trying the 12 year.
I'd say try the 12, it's 60? Worth in our opinion
Always gotta have a KC120 on hand! Would be a good one to throw into blinds as a lower priced option to see how it holds up
Yea we need to pick up another
Good review. Got one today knobs 12
I really enjoy the KC 12, but man, I have a hard time with it at at $60, especially when I finally got my hands on an older pick for $46.
Tried the 12 year and it is very good . Also on my second 9 year store pick. Still have not seen 15 year store picks in my area.
High quality intro there buds
Im looking foward to trying this. You could have compared this to bakers or even, perhaps, an Elijah Craig barrel proof (obviously a bit bifferent).
Your not wrong about the wax its the worst, but the knob creek small batch kentucky bourbon is my new favourite for the Irish coffees next level
I like the way Beam Suntory keeps tweaking and experimenting with their barrels..
marketing I guess but its good for the industry as a whole ... itd be cool to have a jim beam wild turkey blend.
🎆best regards
Just came across you guys this week. You guys are absolutely fantastic. I will now be looking into your patreon. Quick question, I just cracked this for Turkey Day. When I smell this in my glass, I get notes of maple syrup. Or something sweet like a glazed donut. How far off am I? Thanks, I look forward to many more reviews🥃🙏🏻
So 12 year at 100 proof @ $60 or 9 year SiB at 120 proof @ $45?
I’d had some of those SiB that were 12-15 years, but at 120 proof I feel like they’d have to be better than the current 100 proof offerings.
Solid intro and delicious looking knob.
Usually drink about 1/2 bottle of bourbon a day. I live in Canada, so I don’t think we have the selection as you do in the states. Usually drink Wild Turkey, Buffalo Trace, Maker’s Mark, Woodfords and Old Prospector. After watching you guys, I think I’m doing it wrong. Any advice.
That’s a lot of bourbon, friend.
I like the music on your old videos
Neck of the bottle and no time to breath, will you be doing an update after it has opened up and a comparison in live video? Russell's vs KC 12
Eventually yes. We just picked up a russlles to compare it to
The SiB's which are 120 proof are 9yrs old, and typically in the $45 range for a standard (non-store pick). Which would you rather?
The 12. Just like the easier going pallet more, little more sweetness in it too.
Bourbon Junkies regardless of the price difference? Beam seems all over the place in price point. I picked up Batch 5 of the 2001 edition for $79, it’s 14+yrs old....
its SO good
Man, I thought it was way too oaky. I absolutely would prefer the 9 year single barrel. But taste is a very subjective thing.
omg knox is so smoll in this video. crazy
Yeah I have a clip or two save from when he was really little
dope intro
Just got a bottle from the PX can’t wait to try it
just got my hands on this today
Booker's was raised to $99.99 in Michigan. I actually like Booker's, but I don't think it's worth $100
Oof I thought it was 89.99. which we already pass on
Knox + Knob = Knice
If you guys had the choice between this and a store pick NKSR for 42.99....what do you pick?
Store picks
Would you guys pick 12 over single? I enjoy single and think it's at better price for what you get.
Probably yea, would be more fun to do blind.
@@BourbonJunkies That's a great idea! You guys should do Knob and Booker's blind mix. That would be awesome! See what comes out on top between Knob and Booker's.
My local liquor store has had bottles of Bookers sitting there for awhile. Knob creek 12 shows up the other day, they were all gone by close. I was able to grab one!! SCORE!!
Great video! Do you think the 2019 version when it was a limited edition is better? or the 2020 standard edition?
Honestly I'd guess it's going to be blended very similar.
Just ordered a glass
Good review fun cool bottle
by the 3rd taste I was in love.
Just to price date this with the current inflation concerns - $83 in Morgantown, WV
The neck pour on this was nothing but peanuts and peanut skins. Did not like it. A week later that disapated. Thank God
Bookers 30th & I’d add Country Ham... both smell better, just saying! 🤷♂️
OMG, look how little Knox was!
He a big man now
@@BourbonJunkies I know, it's only been a few months.
Have you tried the Knob Creek 12 year Cask Strength limited release? How do you think they compare?
Never got one, we'd probably love it though
Thanks. I was able to grab one in Lexington last week so will put side by side. The KC 12 was an instant hit last night at bourbon tasting among buddies.
Finally saw a bottle of Knob Creek 12yr at $60. Seeing your review I had to buy it. 😬
Hey guys, love your content!
I'm in Australia and bourbon prices and availability get weird. Russell's Reserve is easy to find and costs $75AUD ($49USD) but the only Knob Creek we can get is the 9 or rye and it costs $95AUD ($72USD) ... I want to get one knob creek for my shelf, is it worth spending the $72 for the 9 or bite the bullet and order the 12 (or any other you recommend) with $40 shipping from the US. Only want one knob creek, what do you guys think?
I don't think the 12 is going to be worth the up charge to get. I think overall the 12 is better, but not if you're going to have to pay well in excess of $100 for it.
Knox needs to make a reappearance
Bought a bottle of knob creek 9 yr and wasn’t impressed. I’ll take four roses SB straight BW or makers any day.
Have yall done a video of mckenna 10 year???
I don't think we ever have actually
Fantastic buy.
Dan only gets more handsome with age.
yea. if its watered down to 100 proof, and still $60, i'll go for the knob creek 120 single barrel.Its $60 here in Alabama. Don't much care if low proof whiskey is 10 , 12, 15 or 20 years old.
I mean most of our favorite bottles are bottled in Bond, I don't consider 50% that low either, but enjoy whatever ya want.
KC 12 is $60 in Maine. I enjoyed it. Honestly, those KC Sib store pix are amazing, but alas none in Maine
Pickef up a bottle in NH today. $56.99 at their state stores
John Belushi I know of a store in Portland that has KC store picks available. I’m going to pick up another bottle today.
I don't understand why Knob creek's wax sucks so much when Baker's and Bookers is just fine.
Yea that's something I don't get either
The country hams I had were horrible. No where near Evan Williams SB
I think its pretty good
I've never had a KC bottle I enjoyed... Including the 2001 Batch 1 and 15yr private picks, just doesn't suit my palette.
This isn't going to do it for you either then.
This is selling for 120 at my liquor store now 🤯
That’s insane
My man on left def d3os coek 😎
Just had small children that hate sleep
Were your mics not working? Sound seems really distant/hollow
They were not working... We fail again
Ever done a blind taste or Japanese whiskeys ? would love to see that.....
We only have a couple and they are WILDLY different from each other.
@@BourbonJunkies how do you guys feel about Metallicas whiskey, Blackened
We tend to stay away from most celebrity whiskies
Cookie B-Roll
Dan prayed when he shot that it was all in focus cause he didn't expect cookie to look up at the camera
Pecan apple pie with Carmel drizzle
What's not to love?
Knob creek 12 or the 120 proof 9 year knob creek?
12 hands down
In Canada this is $130 lol
I'm enjoying a dram of KC9 while watching this; and surprising have similar flavor experience
I do have the KC12 and KC15 on my shelf, so might have to do a side-by-side to experience the differences
Cheers! 🥃
LOST PROPHET REVIEW NEXT!!!!
Oh you know we coming in hot with that. It'll be along the lines of what our other expensive reviews will be. Solely reviewed in noises
@@BourbonJunkies LOOKIN FORWARD TO SOME QUALITY GRUNTS
That music will always make me think iddubz rip good TH-cam
I'm not sure what you guys were drinking. I picked up a bottle, there is 0 sweetness, 0 frulit or development. Just Oak and alchol and maybe a bit of a nut note. Worst whisky I've every tried.
KC 15 year old single barrel or KC 12 year?
Not a fair fight, those 15 years are magical.
Good price for kc 12. I seen it for 75. Any Intel.
I'd pay that, it's a great 12 year age stated bourbon.
@@BourbonJunkies Ok now I don’t feel I overpaid.
These two guys would give anyone a headache...
Old Forester 1920/1910 vs 12 yr knob ? What do you grab?
Old Forester 1920
Damn that's hard. I think all of them honestly. They all have their time and place, 1920 is classic bourbon done well. 1910 is a dessert and 12 year is a nice balance of sweet nuttiness.
@@BourbonJunkies it's a pandemic they only let you grab one bottle. What do you buys? 🤣
Well then 1920 had never let me down. Dan will probably say 1910.
@@BourbonJunkies thanks guys
I Have this bottle however drinking wildturkey 101 at the moment
What the hell is a PEECAN?
It's a lot like a pecan, but you have a stroke while saying it
@@BourbonJunkies does grow hair?
@@BourbonJunkies I'm from Texas, and I'm addicted to y'alls videos. Great work ! Keep it up.
@Mr. Blonde It's a pecan from south of the Mason and Dixon's Line :-O
Not sure why anyone would buy this if they could get 120 proof, 15 year, Knob Creek store picks for $50. I guess if you could not find a store pick....but again I doubt you could find this either in that case.
A lot of people can't find the store picks is mostly why.
paint thinner
Jim Beam and family corks are the worst of all time but damn good juice.
Whats with Booker > Time for Baker !
Can't get Lot B > Go Knob Here
I can't believe you didn't name your dog Weller or Forester
Lol I said Taylor, so he could be a colonel!
So red fruit, nutmeg........like in apple pie?? Lol
Lmao, can't be that after I said it. Dan would never admit it.
Dan would say. I didnt say that and if I did, I'll edit it out so I didn't. Lol
Not pie. But let’s look at that label... way to deflect
Wtf does drown it fuzzy mean?
I'm pretty sure it's vape-speak.
Lol neither of us vape boomer
@@BourbonJunkies Boomer? Ouch! You are however, correct sirs! :-O
😜 cheers man
First
Its an A. Just saying.
Apple......pie
Nope can't be a pie, because I said that and Dan would have to agree
Next tasting just add sycamore bark and avocado peel to throw him off. Also, I missed the b roll the first time. Jesus.....the cookie shot to the bottle
Best part of the whole review
