[QUOTE="Cohiba, post: 2891848, member: 2550"] You know...........Knob Creek is made by Jim Beam. Nothing wrong with that but a lot of people are surprised when they hear this. To me, Knob Creek tastes like a weak version of my [B]BELOVED [/B]George Dickel #12. As I type this I'm in the process of obtaining some George Dickel 17 year old. [b][Broken External Image][/b] [U]**Supposedly found by accident*** [b][Broken External Image][/b] [/U] [B]From a website:[/B] Jack Daniels makes up the lion’s share of attention when it comes to [URL='http://thewhiskeywash.com/american-whiskey/tennessee-whiskey-jack-george-beyond/'][U]Tennessee whiskey[/U][/URL], but the next-largest competitor, Diageo’s George Dickel, is also known for some rather interesting offerings. The latest of these is said to have been[B] found near the back of a warehouse[/B] by distiller Allisa Henley when “she wasn’t really even looking for it.” Enter the new George Dickel 17 Year Old. The George Dickel 17 Year Old, according to the distillery, came about when Henley “[W]as searching George Dickel’s single story barrel warehouses for 9-Year Old whisky to use in the Hand Selected Barrel Program she’d launched in 2014.

[I]George Dickel 17-Year Old possesses a nose of sweet molasses and rich oak, and has a deep golden amber color.
