Knob Creek 250th Anniversary
Knob Creek 250th Anniversary
Knob Creek 250th Anniversary Bourbon is available at Gifted Pour, your destination for rare and limited-edition spirits with fast, reliable delivery. This commemorative release marks a milestone worth celebrating, drawing from the deep heritage of one of Kentucky's most respected bourbon brands.
Knob Creek, part of the Beam Suntory family and distilled at the Jim Beam Distillery in Clermont, Kentucky, has long been synonymous with full-flavored, high-proof bourbon aged for character rather than speed. The 250th Anniversary expression honors that tradition with a bourbon built on carefully selected barrels, extended aging, and the rich grain profile — corn-forward with rye spice — that defines the Knob Creek house style. This limited release is a nod to two and a half centuries of American distilling history.
Best enjoyed neat or on a single large ice cube to let the barrel and grain notes open up over time. It also anchors a serious Old Fashioned or Manhattan for those who prefer their anniversaries stirred.

Why Gifted Pour recommends it
A commemorative bottle makes the most sense when the occasion itself is a milestone, and this limited release, framed as a nod to two and a half centuries of American distilling history, fits that moment neatly. Think of the bourbon drinker marking a big anniversary, a retirement, or a promotion they worked years for. Distilled at the Jim Beam Distillery in Clermont, Kentucky, it follows the Knob Creek house style: a corn-forward mash bill with firm rye spice, matured in new charred oak. In the glass, rich caramel and dark brown sugar lead into toasted oak and dried cherry, with vanilla and cinnamon arriving as it opens. The palate is full-bodied, carrying toffee, dark fruit and a subtle nuttiness, and the high-proof character adds intensity without burying the grain. The long, warming finish of oak, vanilla bean and dry spice rewards slow sipping, so it suits someone who likes to take a pour neat, add a single large cube, or stir a proper Old Fashioned.
Pairs well with
- Promotion or retirement celebration — A commemorative bottle with a long, warming finish of oak and vanilla bean suits a toast to years of hard work.
- Dark chocolate with dried cherries — The bourbon's dried cherry, dark fruit and toffee notes echo the fruit and deepen the chocolate's bittersweet edge.
- Smoked brisket or grilled steak — Toasted oak, charred barrel and baking spice stand up to the char and richness of smoked or grilled meat.
