Knob Creek: Much Ado About Nothing

2 parts Knob Creek Summer 2009

1 part Fresh Cherry with Pit

 

Place fresh cherry complete with pit and stem in bottom of small rocks glass.  Wave empty Knob Creek bottle over top of glass.  Sit and stare. 

 

There has been quite a fuss, stir, ruckus, commotion if you will.  All of it about Knob Creek disappearing slowly from liquor store shelves.  It seems the nine year aging time frame and consumer demand didn’t quite balance out.  Some areas of the country are still fairing well with Knob Creek bottles (full ones) lined up on shelves while other areas have begun seeing a trend of consumer hoarding.  You know who you are.

 

Fred Noe and the Whiskey Professors will take center stage Tuesday, September 1 at 4:00pm (EST) with a live webcast from the Knob Creek House in Clermont, Kentucky, to kick off National Bourbon Heritage Month and address the current situation surrounding Knob Creek.  Find out firsthand what the real scoop is on the Knob Creek supply shortage and what inquisitive bourbon enthusiasts like yourself want to know about bourbon in general.  The link to the webcast went live today so that questions could be submitted to be answered live during the webcast by the Whiskey Professors.  Submitting a question is easy.  Enter your name, email address and question.  Tune back in Tuesday, Sept. 1 at 4pm EST for interesting commentary and the Knob Creek ado that has everything to do about nothing left in the bottles and barrels.
