Nach einem Jahr Pause (wir berichteten damals über die Erstveröffentlichung) hat sich die Knob Creek Distillery (sie gehört zu Jim Beam) dazu entschlossen, ihren Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye wieder auf den Markt zu bringen – allerdings so wie die Erstausgabe offiziell nur in den USA.
Der Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye ist eine Mischung aus dem Knob Creek 9 Year Old Bourbon und dem Knob Creek 7 Year Old Rye, das Verhältnis der beiden Komponenten ist aber nicht gesondert angegeben.
Hier die Presseaussendung dazu:
