KAGEMAS: Knob Creek review.

Leave a comment

INTRODUCTION: So I wanted to review this several years ago. Didn’t do it because I wanted to wait to get a Glen Carian glass to see, what, if anything the cup added. I reviewed the cup in Nov of 2022, so look that up. Here is the review of a whiskey with a great nickname for a vagina.

Cup: Glen Cairn, winner of the most prestigious pretension award.

Flavor: Earthy, pettiness, sweet. Kind of thin and watery in mouth feel. Could of sworn I picked up a hint of Rose. Yes, the flower, not the wine.

Water Soluble: yes, but makes the drink mono dimensional, just sweet. Neither the cup, nor the water alleviate the ethanol burn.

Verdict: I like the name as a synonym for vagina, more than I like the whiskey itself. If this tasted like vagina, I would of rated it higher, but then again, this is probably the equivalent of street cornor horror story pussy, so… objectively, it’s not the most foul of drinks I ever had, recall I genuinely enjoy Budweiser unironically, so let that sink it as you decide if this booze is for you.

The Devil’s Advocate, Jim Beam.

The Devil is in the details and boy does this thing have a plethora of details. Ironically, it’s more angelic than it’s name lets on and is quite ethereal. For $30.00 (Maine. Check your region for price.) You get something that is quite better than it’s normal, everyday counter part On the nose is a peppery, sweet vanilla, low ethanol scent. On the palate, you get wood notes, cherry, vanilla, apple, typical Kentuckian whiskey, peaty flavor, along with a slight peppery burn and a smooth, sweet finish. The best way to drink this is neat, as you really get all those great flavors. Drinking it with a bit of water turns it into normal Jim Beam and wouldn’t be worth the premium price. I haven’t mixed it with any soda, so I don’t know it mixes, but since it reminds me a bit of Captain Morgan’s Spiced Rum, I bet it would mix well. Shooting it is smooth as glass. Overall, a very good whiskey at a decent price.
